We'll have the big fire and maybe some sparkles (no fireworks allowed here apart from Canada Day, New Years and Victoria Day) but we'll definitely have the guy!! Kids will be fine! :fingerscrossed: :lol:

Do people actually adhere to the rules? Fireworks going off all week here.. But ony meant to be on Halloween ?

Giant Tiger has them here. For the 'obvious' Canadian days but they have some for much more than that.

We are very rural with only a few houses on the entire stretch of Concession road and the fire station is around the corner so I guess they would figure out it's us and charge the fine. Also we're surrounded by acres of woods that I don't want to set on fire :lol:. I don't really care, we might get some ground spinners if we can find them anywhere. Nobody would see them behind the house :)

It was my daughters third birthday yesterday. Kind of sorry to leave her annual birthday fireworks behind :(. Still we celebrated her birthday yesterday with hot dogs, sparklers and a display!
