4th of July

I know.... my blog is WAY behind and I'm sure you are wondering just WHAT has this family been up to?!?!? Well wonder no more...

We had a 4th of July/July birthday gathering
Oh so patriotic! I got us matching shirts, but I spared Trent the embarrassment of matching us and got him a different one!

Some of the grandkids

We played another one of my silly family games. This time everyone had to vote on family members that looked the most like someone or something patriotic... like George Washington, fireworks, Statue of Liberty, etc... After the votes were tallied by our accounting firm of K Jarvis... the winners received their very own George Washingtons.... one dollar bills!
Of course we had food!... GOOD food... she's NOT gagging but pointing to her mouth (or maybe about to bite her finger... I'm really not quite sure what she's doing!)
4 July birthdays!!! July 5, 6, 7 and 19! Happy Birthday everyone!!

Presents!!!! WooHoo... they are old enough to enjoy getting gift cards now!!

after the party...

just chillin!

After our fun family time and everyone left did Mike and I go watch fireworks?!?!?!?
Golly no!!!.... we were being official OLD people and we watched the fireworks on TV (another thing in life that I said I would NEVER do!!) on a comfy couch in our sloppy clothes and in the AIR CONDITIONING!!!!!
I hope everyone had a great 4th!!!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
