4th of July weekend at the coast

The Grandkids... Katie, Jericah, Jeffrey, Morgan, Cody. This was how we started off the weekend. Papa and nana were so happy to have them all there, at least for one day.

There was so much family there that I hadn't seen in years. Lisa and the boys went with along with her friend Teresa. All of the kids had fun playing in the lake. We had a hard time getting them out to eat or anything else. Here are some random pictures from the weekend.

FOOD GALORE!!! We had so much food. People were eating all day. We had to send some home with people so we didn't have to look at it anymore. There was ribs, chicken, potato salad, macaronni salad, jello salad, Auntie Myrna's famous chocolate and banana desserts, jell-o cake and Brownies, rice krispie treats, chips and dip, cherries and sausages. If you were still hungry it was your own fault.

The Fireworks. SO many of them. It took my dad and a couple cousins hours to set them all off. The kids enjoyed TONS of sparklers

The old time metal sparklers. So much prettier than the ones they do today. I love them

TIME FOR S'MORES

The fire was perfect and obviously the childrens blood sugar was low because we ate a lot of smores.

Thank you mom and pop for hosting this fun filled weekend. I love you very much.
