Happy Birthday America!

Well, July 4th is here........fireworks and food and friends and family and fun! This year I am working the holiday, so the family had the annual cookout a day early. Some highlights were turkey burgers (MUCH better than the traditional hot dogs, in my opinion), water balloons, watermelon, slip-n-slide, s'mores (baked in pizza box ovens that were placed in my car to cook), and squirting our cats and the neighbors dogs with water guns to chase them away from our food! (Don't worry, no animlas were harmed in the making of our holiday dinner, except of course for the turkeys we were eating...)


The quality of my pictures this year is a little lacking, because it was late at night when the festivities were taking place, rather than the middle of the afternoon like last year. The watermelon helmets were a blast, though, and I even put one on this year, something I didn't do last year! Here's to a great holiday, and fabulous rest of the summer!
