Buzz, Bike, Boom, Myrtle

What do Buzz, bike, boom and Myrtle all have in common?? Nothing but a fun Saturday!
To infinity and beyond!! Brech loves to dress up like Buzz Lightyear. Thanks Uncle Loman for sharing with us!!
BOOM! Did you hear that?? Its the sound of firecrackers being thrown on the ground. Well, maybe not BOOM! There was quite a commotion while the boys had some fun!
I followed Brech around and picked up the ones that didn't go off the first time. He would throw handfuls out and only one would pop. It had to be like the multiplication of the firecrackers for him.
Cormac had a great time making his dad "dance". That caught on real quick! Everyone wanted to make the others dance.
Darren had been saving some LOUD ones that did BOOM! Stephen complained his ears were hurting after Darren and I threw ours.
HEY MOM - DANCE!!!!
Action shot of Stephen's last handful.
Another new bike?? Blase went to town with Darren to pick out HIS early birthday present. He was outgrowing his bike, so he gifted it to Cormac. I had the first ride on the new bike. Either I'm out of shape or that bike is hard to petal...yah, I'm out of shape.
Oh poor Brech Earl! His parents are so poor they can't afford a back tire for his bike. Just kidding. Darren was combining Rex's old bike with Cormac's old bike to make one functional bike. Now we need to find some training wheels for the bike and Brech is ready to go.
Darren and Cormac went shooting in the afternoon. On their way home they spotted a baby snapping turtle. I named it Myrtle.

Mom can we PLEASE keep the turtle???
Please Mommy until he is [this] big??
BUT MOM, we don't have ANY pets. (What about Stephen's fish, Pete??)
