fireworks

      

                                FIREWORKS!  YEA!  Thanks, Sam.

      

The Fourth of July was jammed pack with fun.  Merry Jennifer, Sam, Oliver, and Maddie arrived at 11:00 A.M.  Then off to the pool we went.  Back for lunch, followed by nap time. 

      

Mom came over for a couple of hours and caught us up on her recent trip to Tennessee for two reunions.  I was flabbergasted by the constant chatter about who she saw and whose kid belonged to whom.  I couldn't keep all those people straight in my mind, but Mom certainly did.  Pretty good for an 85 year old.

      

Mostly during the afternoon we rocked on the front porch and talked.  Then the kids went swimming again about 5:00 P.M., followed by dinner which consisted of burgers, potato salad and silver queen corn.  And I must not forget the rainbow sprinkled cookies.

      

Baths were next on the agenda, followed by fireworks.  Actually, sparklers.

      

      

Only the bravest of us would hold the sparklers.  The rest of us just flinched and enjoyed them.

      

      

I hope your Fourth of July was as good as ours.
