Into the woods. It's so nice to know that kids today, big and small, can still be entertained by the simple things--such as swinging like monkeys on a sturdy vine hanging from a tall tree discovered on a family walk on the fourth of July. Grandson Elijah was anxious to go back there today and have at it again. Son in law Kerry and niece Julia had a blast swinging on it, too. Plus, there was some fierce competition playing corn hole in the back yard. It was a fun afternoon hanging with peeps, and for a little while, the Mario Brothers were no where in sight.

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!

Day One Hundred Eighty Four 2011
Hubby Neil has worked hard installing our tin ceiling tiles in the living room, which back in the day, used to be two separate rooms. He finished one half of the project this evening. We have to paint the corner pieces and he's got some more tweaking to do on it in certain places where seams show, etc. Mostly it's done. And it was a struggle to say the least. Now he has to do it all over again on the other side of the room. He's done an outstanding job I think, especially for someone who had no idea what he was doing when he first started the installation. We're hoping part two will be a piece of cake. (We can dream, can't we?)

Remembering my little brother, Rob, who would have been 48 today. Love him and miss him.

Day One Hundred Eighty Three 2011
Hubby Neil left his cap on one of the watermelons we bought today for our 4th of July get together. I just happened to notice it in passing. Neil tends to leave things like hats, glasses, keys, etc. in odd places (usually where he can't find them) so I don't think he intended this to be cute or funny. But since it is kinda cute and kinda funny, I had to take a picture and share it with you.
