Candle Order & Our Pretty Fireworks
July 5th, 2008 by BlogRmom
Last night we went downtown to see the fireworks. Let’s just say, it’s a bit hectic to cram 200,00+ people into a little iddy biddy bridge area to see the show. Most of whom have spent the day down there getting drunk and listening to the bands play prior to the fireworks. So yes, it’s a wonderful time to say the least. Once you get past the drunk people, beer tents, spilled food, cans all over the road and sidewalks, garbage cans randonly placed in the middle of sidewalks, you can actually enjoy the show. Last nights show lasted about 35 minutes. This is much longer then the last few years. It was 15 minutes tops which frankly for me isn’t worth the hassle, but the kids like it. So I was pleasantly suprised last night. We had good weather and it was a nice show. Overall Fire Over the Fox which is sponsered by Festival Foods was a great show!! Here’s a couple pictures I got, I only took my Point and Shoot camera so they aren’t the best!!
I absolutely loved this one:

Here’s one of the Ground Showers and some in the sky:

And this one got TONS of cheers from the crowd. You might not understand it, but we are from Green Bay, home of the Green Bay Packers Football team. So this is the Green Bay Packers ‘G’ and a heart next to it… because “We Love Our Green Bay Packers!”:

You can see a few more of my shots on Flickr here. It was a fun night… So was coming home and trying to sleep! But that’s another story!! LOL
On another note, I got my Candle Order today from Lara at The Sage Grove. I am hopelessly addicted to her stuff. She’s got some new scents. I always order them in tarts first. Then I go ahead and order the candles if I really like the scent. Although I have loved all of the scents I have gotten from her!! I just have some FAVS. I am excited to see what she brings out for Fall scents because the summer ones are awesome. On this order I got Love Spell, Caribean Coconut, Honey Coco Mango, Monkey Toots and Spring Rain. I love them all. The smell in my home right now is Monkey Toots. It’s a banana smell. I LOVE LOVE it. It’s soft and wonderful, and the name of it makes me giggle a little each time!! LOL
Okay bloggers, I am off to start my day. I do have a link for you today: Looking for some electronic deals? Look no further!! Check it out!! They have some awesome things!!

Monkey Toots is a candle scent? Oh wow, I had no idea! What will these marketers think of next! Anyway, the name does not sound appealing, but the idea of a banana scented candle does sound nice.
