What could be more entertaining than destroying your little girls Barbie cars? Kurt and his best buddy Chis had this idea to attach fireworks to cars and see's who car would go the furthest. Chris invited some friends over and everyone was instructed to bring their cars prepared to race.
Well, the idea was a fun one until they lit the cars and none of them even moved an inch. They all just lit off the fireworks, or caught on fire. We decided that Macy's won since it burned the longest and was unpredictable to when all the fireworks went off. She was heat-broken afterward because her car was melted all over the pavement. I think that Santa is going to have to add Barbie cars to the list this year.
We also shot off fireworks, and let's just say that not all of them were really safe. One of the "Wyoming" fireworks shot off too low and sent fire balls shooting everywhere, including skimming the blanket full of kids. The men were stomping out mini fires in multiple spots. Smart. Despite the cars not moving and the lawn catching on fire, we had a really fun 24th of July.
