Fireworks ~

Clyde took the kids with him to the grocery store the other day. When they started loading the groceries into the car, several pop cans exploded all over the place...including all over Riley! Cooper thought it was hilarious, of course, but Riley not so much. When they got home, Clyde realized the rest of the pops in that case were bulging with pressure, so he opened a few so they wouldn't explode all over the garage. He left a couple in the case so he could bring them back to the store the next day to get a refund...but in the meantime, my son had other plans. The little shitpot apparently told the neighbors he had fireworks and proceeded to toss two cases worth of pops in the middle of the street to watch them explode! He was neat about it though, he picked up the empty cans when he was finished! Clyde and I were in getting dinner ready and didn't realize it until Riley came in to tell us (after the fact, of course.)

Needless to say, we could have choked him! So as punishment, he had a timeout and he had to buy us two new cases of pop out of his piggy bank. He best leave fireworks for the 4th of July! Never a dull moment around here, that's for sure!
