4th of July feast
The flooding rains drove us indoors this year, but that didn’t stop us from our annual get together. There were 19 of us this year.
We all couldn’t fit around the big table, but that’s OK.

One of the best things about the 4th ~ homemade ice cream!
Granddaughter Shelby was stylin in her red, white and blue.
Last year, the drought was so bad, we were terrified to shoot off fireworks.
This year, there was zero chance of setting anything on fire. The highlight of our 4th is always fireworks, and we go all out ~ even if it means setting off fireworks in the rain.
We lit up the cloudy sky and watched from under the back porch.
Thanks to Jerry, Kerry, and Don who got drenched setting our sky on fire.
They were awesome even in the rain. Fireworks never get old and something I look forward to every July 4th.
Some of us didn’t care if we got wet ~ it was fun anyway.
Our grand finale was three fountains of sparklers ~ so cool.
Happy 237th Birthday, America!

So glad we got together today! Great pictures one and all! Thanks again for hosting the festivities. We had a blast despite the rain. Love you guys!
It was a ton of fun!!! Seeing all that food again makes me wanna sneak to the kitchen and eat!! But I'm too afraid zombies might eat me if I go downstairs in the dark. No more Walking Dead after midnight!!! I hope I don't have to tickle before daybreak :/ Great pics!!
Great pics!! You said you didn't get any good fireworks pics, but they are all great! It was so much fun! Thanks for hosting. Glad we didn't let the rain stop us.
PS to Kelly - that's why I don't watch scary stuff anymore! I'm too chickin'! :)
Tinkle not tickle
Jane, luckily it was daylight when I had to teetee. We stayed up again watching The Walking Dead. We're nuts.
