So I haven't blogged in a REALLY long time! So I'm going to pretend that I have a good bunch of stuff to blog about and roll with it!
I had so much fun this fourth of July!! I got my family to come up to my house (well some of them anyway:) and we had great fun!
We're lame and so we don't have a BBQ, so instead we had hogies! I LOVE HOGIES! And I think we did very well with them. They were good! And then after a couple hours of finally digesting hogies and salads galore we had pie! I LOVE PIE!!! And if I do say so myself, I made the most FABULOUS strawberry pie EVER! ( I shoulda taken a picture...) And I made a Bannana Cream and my mommy made these fabulous rasberry cream pies with rasberries from her house! they were awesome!
I was SOOO excited to have Maeby see the fireworks! She's just so very curious about EVERTHING that I knew she would think they were the COOLEST thing ever...but then during the day she missed a nap in all the excitement and had to go to bed on time and thus miss out on fireworks...it was terrible sad... But she still had great fun! She got to see Great Grandma and Grandpa and Memaw and Gaffer and aunts and uncles! She loved it!
And of course the fireworks were wonderfull:) As you can see Josh loves playing with his fire...maybe a little too much:) but Hal and Noah had great fun helping him light them off. Earlier in the day they wanted to do the parachute fireworks (because lookin for the little parachute in the dard would be NO fun) and a bunch of the Neighbor kids came over and chased them down with Hal and Noah. They had great times.
And while the boys were having fun with their fireworks Ellen and I had WAYYYY too much fun with the sparklers! We used all of them in about...10 minutes! It was fun!
And the funniest part of my night was about the time that I started being sad with my neighbors for setting off tons of illegal fireworks, the fire departement showed up and *says in mocking tone* THEY GOT IN TROUBLE! I thought it was funny!
But we had a really fun time and it was great food! I'm way stinkin' greatful that my family comes all the way up here to visit me! Specially on a holiday when Josh worked late! It's nice to get visits every so often!
Happy forth everyone!
