18
On Thursday, July 17, 2008, me and my sister (a Gold Medalist in the Foot Olympics) finally used the sparklers that my mom bought, but forgot to have us use while all the grandchildren were in town during 4th of July. Luckily, as me an my sister proved, you are never too old for a sparkler.




Luckily for you, there is a whole week of ridiculous photos such as these awaiting your viewing pleasure when we go on our cruise in a week and a half.

Man, I love sparklers! My kids and I like to hold our hands close to the burn and feel the prickle of the sparks bouncing off our skin.
And that last shot made me smile .
We have some leftover sparklers too…I think I’ll break them out tonight.

Okay, I give up — What does your t-shirt say? “Careful or you’ll end up in my…what?”
July 18th, 2008 at 7:11 am
I think it’s more fun if you guess.

“blog” would make sense, but it looks like “navel”…

Ouch. The idea of someone being in my navel sounds painful.
Fun Craig Fact: I enjoy playing with other people’s belly buttons, but hate when people touch mine. It just feels so creepy.

Is that your mom lighting them? You have a cool mom.
July 18th, 2008 at 11:31 am
I agree! I think a Craig’s Mom fanpage is in order…

Yeah, Mom is cool, and really thoughtful when it comes to making sure her family has a good time. She pulls out all the stops (especially around holidays) to make sure we’re all happy.

If I guess right can I be in your novel?
Although “navel” is a much more interesting t-shirt quote, regardless of who is doing what to whomever.
And, of course, this discussion requires that henceforth all commenters must begin by declaring “innie” or “outie.”
I am an innie.

Innie. It collects mucho linto.
July 18th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Innie.
July 18th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
innie.
July 18th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
But mine doesn’t collect lint.
July 18th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
It prefers baseball cards.
July 18th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Innie. Mine collects just the right amount of lint.
I have not played with sparklers in years. My recollection is that they were hard to find (or not legally available) in NJ so we loaded up when visiting “wilder” states. Nice photos, I like the sparkling smiles as well.
Enjoy your cruise. I just got back from my first cruise with one of my best friends. It was quite the adventure for me, but it turned out well.

Innie of course. Innie belly bottons are hot unless they are pierced. I like mine completely naked…oooh yeah

PRETTY! (and the sparklers are nice, too).
July 18th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
I wish we had the same sparklers in CA, we get some crappy ‘Morning Glories”. eh Be sure to get that shoulder hair off before your cruise. lol

Hmm… I’ll have to send you a video that me and an ex-made. It’s funny looking at how incredibly HUGGGEE his belly button it. It was like a cavern! Talk about “Allegory of the Cave”…
July 18th, 2008 at 11:54 pm
Aww, you two look like your having so much fun.
And the belly button talk reminds me of when Peter Griffin’s maid pulled a ColecoVision out of his belly button.
Yes, I watch way to much Family Guy.
