Playing with fire

We didn't get to play with real sparklers for the 4th of July so when I saw some at a toy store the other day I couldn't resist buying them. Jackson was way more into these than the "fireworks" he saw at my parent's house.

After the cub went to bed Jack and I had some fun of our own with the sparklers...nothing crazy--just fun with the camera. We were trying to make shapes/letters with  the light. If you ever wondered what Jack and I do for fun--I play with camera settings and Jack makes spreadsheets. If you're ever bored, you know where the party is ;)
                  
Clearly it didn't work as well as I had hoped. I never could make a complete star and God only knows what Jack was doing....
