4th of July


The 4th proved to be a lot of fun! Even though poor Beau had to work! He got called out at 8:00 am (on the 4th) and didn't get home until 7:00AM the NEXT morning! That is right 23 hours! YUCK! I felt so bad for him. He crawled into bed on the 5th at 7:0o am and got called out again at 10:00 am. So Saturday night he was just dragging! Poor guy!

Here are a few pictures of the kids waiting for the parade to start!



Even though Beau wasn't there, and I was bummed, it still was fun! I took the kids to the parade. which they completely loved! Then we came home and relaxed. Shelly and I threw our 2nd annual 4th bbq. It was so much fun and we once again had a huge turn out! We did it at the church pavilion this year. It was nice to have more room for the kids to run and play. We played volleyball, ate yummy food, played horse shoes, ultimate Frisbee, and just sat and visited! Thank you to all those who came! We hope you had a blast!

Hope everyone else enjoyed there day!

Wow! Looks like you had a lot of fun with your BBQ. We missed you at the reunion. But we get to see you on the blog! To bad Beau had to work on the 4th, that's no fun.

Such a great time! You guys stayed there late! Did you watch the fireworks from there?
Thanks for putting it together, it was good to see everyone, though we wish Beau could have been there. Tell him hello for us.
