Fireworks!




Bonfire Night! I can't believe it has been a year since last November 5th!!!! But it has.... My sister Helen & her friend Ian came up for the afternoon & stayed to watch the fireworks display at Sefton Park where we also met our friends Kate, Will & Elias (it's quite tricky trying to meet up with people in a huge park in the dark but we managed it!). The display was brilliant. Luke LOVED it, Timmy enjoyed it as long as he was gripping my hand tightly but Jordan was beside himself & cried most of the time. It was really hard to see him so upset & not be able to calm him down. Still, he was quite positive about the whole thing afterwards & said he did enjoyed seeing the red & pink fireworks. He doesn't want to watch the display at the park next year though! He prefers to watch from the safety of our house....
It was great to go out as a family & spend time with Helen, Ian & the Sopwith family too. It is rather exciting to go out in the dark to the park! (I am quite pleased with my photos this year too which have come out rather well despite me taking them one handed as I was holding Jordan & Timmy at the same time!!!!!)
Hope you had fun on Bonfire Night.
Goodnight! ;o)
PS Do click on the photos to see them bigger as they look better then!
