Babys first building implosion.


We woke up at 5:30 am this morning to head downtown and watch the implosion of the Key Bank building downtown. (not to sound like a total dork but) IT WAS SO COOL! Watching a 20 story building fall to the ground and then the big cloud of smoke. We had a perfect view from the roof of the Hilton . We were prepared to take video from our little digital camera but they actually blew up the building like 5 minutes early. It caught everyone off guard. But Addison didn't even flinch. It wasn't until we were leaving and i gently bumped her stroller into the side of the staircase on accident that she decided to wake up. We got a good laugh out of that. Although as we watched this 20 story bldg drop i reflected on 9/11 and realized i could never understand how traumatic that must have been. You would have had to of been there to truly understand. It put it into perspective for me though. And what i saw was a controlled fall of only 20 stories. Wow. I cant imagine.

well here ya go... (it is actually worth watching, its nuts)

This is her "first building implosion", would lead me to believe that she plans on doing more "building implosions?"

Every time i listen to Addisons anthems CD I can't believe how much each song fits.
