3rd of July cookout

So, my family went to my grandpas on the 3rd of July for a 4th of July cookout. After it got dark, my aunt gets a box of fireworks and me, my two sisters, my mom, my cousin and her son, my grandpa, and my other aunt are sitting around the bonfire. (Yes we were setting off fireworks right next to a bonfire.) We watched a couple of them and then my aunt brought out one we call a flamethrower. It shoots gold stars up and out in every direction. Well my mom gets freaked out and has a chair over head! So we're all laughing about that and watch some more fireworks. Then my aunt brings out a second flamethrower and lights it farther away so maybe it won't come so close to us. Well, they came closer. So, my grandpa's ducking, my sister leaps behind her chair, and the rest of us start running to the patio, my mom with a chair over her head! I think my aunt who was watching with us actually ended up inside the house! I'm surprised none of the neighbors came over to find out what the heck was going on! They must be used to stuff like that happening over there. And this was just my dad's side of the family!
