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!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!
Celebrating Independence
Family, Food, Fun, Fireworks!
What a fabulous Fourth! My family celebrated America’s birthday with our annual backyard get together. We enjoyed an awesome meal, homemade ice cream, some corn hole competition, and in spite of drought conditions, managed a brief fireworks display without setting the world on fire. I love my family and I love this country and I thank God every day that I get to live in the land of the free! Happy birthday, America!

Day One Hundred Eighty Five 2011
This is how my family celebrates the Fourth of July every year. God blessed us with great weather, delicious food, a fun time playing corn hole and just hanging out talking and laughing, and after dark, the most awesome fireworks show in town. We are so blessed to have each other and to live in the greatest country on the planet and so blessed to celebrate freedom every year on the Fourth of July. As always, it was a blast!
