Justin's Birthday Cake

Annette made quite a nice birthday cake for Justin this year. Not only did it taste great, but for a first attempt at decorating a cake, it turned out pretty good.

As you can see from his grin, Justin liked it. There is one question though? Was it the cake he liked, the the cars on top?
I guess that answers that question. :)

Canada Day Fireworks

obviously I have no brain this morning.

Jim told me where he put the pics from the fireworks last night, can I find them?

No.

So suffice it to say, we went to the Exeter Fireworks last night.

Got there around 8.
Justin played at the playground for a bit.
Then we sat and munched on corn chips and juice.
visited folks a bit.

And then I tolerated bangs while holding a boy in my lap. I enjoyed the quiet fireworks. Justin sometimes covered his ears with the 'bangs'. Jim enjoyed the bangey fireworks the most.

It was a good show. Not as good as last year, but they didn't have as much to work from this year apparently. None-the-less, for a small town. Job well done. I really like the sputtery ones....where you get the a whole bunch in different colours that just fly up in the air with a flash of colour. :) Canada Day needs fireworks, and we had them!
