It's Bonfire Night!!!! Yeah, I love getting celebrate like it's the 4th of July on the 5th of November. This year since we missed out on the big fireworks show in Peakirk again we got our own private fireworks show at the Beales' house. Everyone shoots off fireworks in their back gardens which doesn't seem to be a big enough space to do such things but everyone does it. Harrison had a blast screeching along with the whistling fireworks and we couldn't often tell if it was Harry or the fireworks that were being so loud. These were the first real fireworks that both Addie and Harry have seen (don't count Addie's first Bonfire Night when she was 10 months old).
Definitely first time with sparklers...they loved them, but I think Emily and Gemma had just as much fun with them.
I guess I did too...
We also ate lots of great goodies. I tried looking up "traditional" Bonfire Night foods and found toasted marshmallows and loads of apple desserts so I made a new twist on the s'more and put them in a mini tart form. I also made an apple toffee cookie pizza for fun. What a wonderful night.
