Sterling, Hayden, Marcus and I were picking out fireworks, when I looked over to see my youngest son hard at work. He climbed up on the cooler, and made himself right at home. The kids adored him. Can't say I blame them.
Then it was off to Uncle Brad's house where the face painting began.
Down at Illahee State Park, picking up Brad's crabbing nets.
How cool am I? Pretty dang. I put on our very own parade. That's right. We decorated the kids bikes, and all the adults sang The Star Spangled Banner while the boys drove around in circles. It was quite hilarious.
They're so cooperative.
This $2.99 cardboard hat brought him so much joy...actually, he still wears it every day.
What's a family gathering without games right? So, the next one was for the grown ups. Mom and Alan, for lack of drawing ability, were chosen judges, while the rest of us drew pictures. The goal was to draw the most patriotic picture in the time allowed, 7 minutes-ish.

Hayden drew a pirate ship and insisted I take a picture. He was quite put out that Uncle Chris drew his freaky smiley face right through it. Yes, he's covering it up. Haha.
Brats & chicken. mmmmm
Let the fireworks begin!
Noah was really great about just watching. He was mesmerized.
I told dad to smile and this is what I got. Hayden and Marcus like it.
We spent Sunday night at Uncle Braddah's house and only got two pictures in before my camera died. Sad. This is Lillah and Noah.
Hayden & Marcus watching daddy blow stuff up.
The End.
