Birthday for USA



Celebrating our Country's independence. This a favorite of our family as you can see it brings us all together. My daughter designed and brought us all matching T-shirts. When the rest of crowd arrived no one had any trouble spotting a family member!

Our youngest member here to celebrate the Birthday. and the sweetest of us all..



Our eldest member of the family was my mother, I love her spirit. As the rain began to fall into the evening, she remained on the porch. You could here her laughter and cheering everyone on to celebrate. That rain did stay away for our Corn Hole Tournament competition. We had new champion team this year and the prize was... my top picture shows .. {abit of trouble trying to place pic in the right spot}
Need I mention, the great food... we all enjoyed?! Pork roast for all done by my Son-in-law Chris and a little assistance from my brother-in-law, Gerald. It was superb! :} Homemade Ice Cream, watermelon, wonderful salads and desserts brought by the many wonderful guests. Our granddaughter brought a slushie machine with a wide selection of flavored syrups. The kids line for that... went out the door! A big hit for sure Maddy!
Indeed it was a great celebration by all the wonderful friends of our children who attend and I thoroughly enjoyed having my sister and her husband, my brother, sister-in-law and wonderful daughter come. Thanks also for my dear sister, who brought mother to enjoy in the celebration as well. Indeed a great family and friend time had by all. We felt very blessed to share with them all!
