Or not. This 4th was very cool in fact. I bought a pool but didn't bother to set it up. It did get a bit warmer in the afternoon, but not what I'm used to. I invited family over for a typical BBQ at my house. Somethings have changed throughout the years; Not all of us kids were there. Mom doesn't make her potato salad - someone else will. The corn now comes from the stand instead of dad's garden. The root beer isn't home made by Grandpa Johnson. And last, I forgot the "wah-wah lemon" - oops.
And even though times changed over the years at our "family fish frys", it doesn't mean we don't thoroughly enjoy ourselves. We still love to all talk at the same time. The guys and girls seperate to talk guy talk and girl talk. We still reminisce about years past of our memories. We still love our steak medium rare.
I'd have pictures for you but my camera is temporarily in Green Bay. We visited and passed around Kelby, sang happy birthday to Kinley who just turned 5 a few days prior, and just really enjoyed each other's company. Those of us that do still get together, we don't do so but a few times a year it seems. Bear was very happy too, he loves people. After dark my family and Matt's family finished the night with of course fireworks. The girls were so excited I think they beat the competition for being louder than the fireworks!
Thanks all for coming over! I hope you had a great time!
