As long as they don’t point the bottle rockets directly at my wife and I, I think we should be alright. 🙂
A Merry Christmas (and I’ll add whatever the Norse/Scandinavian holiday that was celebrated on December 25) to you all! May you all have visions of grapes of death dancing in your heads tonight. 🙂
