The Bird Wing in practice

In addition to a couple extra games (one even with the Blaze Gambit, which I also made up ^_^ ) but the first game will be my invention, the Bird Wing!  Yay ^_^

It's in the Bird opening (Named after Henry Edward Bird) and offers a Wing Gambit, but unlike a typical Wing Gambit white's first move was 1.f4 instead of 1.e4.  I just wanted to try it in practice so I asked a friend to play 1...c5 against me.  He sometimes plays the Bird against me so I also had an opportunity to play the Blaze Gambit:

The last one of course is where he plays 1.f3?  I miss some obvious tactics but was too engrossed in my attack for the obviously weakening Bxh3!
