HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

It was nice and hot. This was in the shade!
Fireworks!

Outside Pool Table


Isn't this neat!



I hope everybody enjoyed their 4th. We stayed at home, like usual. This time there were no kids, except Ben who came by later in the evening with Tod and Jessica. We ate, played pool outside, went swimming, and ate some more. We each had a baked potatoe with everything on it. Scott also made salmon and we had chips and all kinds of dips. For dessert we had strawberry or raspberry shortcake. We lit fireworks and were eaten alive by masquitos. The dogs were all in a dither, but they eventually recovered. We had a great time. We are going to do it again, to a lesser extent, on Sunday the 5th for the girls.

That's a great firework picture. How in the world did you get the pool table outside? That's pretty neat. why aren't there any pictures of you? I really want to see your hair.

I tried to take a picture of myself, but I couldn't stand to look at it, so I deleted it. We had the pool table in our storage room, and we just bring outside on nice days since there is isn't any room for it inside. I will try to get a good picture of myself today.

Bailey was the lucky girl to find the Easter Egg hidden in a "fresh pile". He tends to do that every year!
