We love the 4th of July celebration and this year we enjoyed fireworks thanks to Terry and Kathy and son John and wife Jessica. It was a spectacular show all around our house this year. We are thankful for the men and women who serve in the armed forces for our freedoms that we often take for granted. Take a moment to thank God for these people and all they have sacrificed for these freedoms.

We also had a wonderful family reunion over the 4th weekend and this a picture of my uncle,cousin, and sister with a birthday cake as they all celebrate birthdays close to the July 4th holiday. We are thankful for each one of you!

Here is Annie with the newest member of the family Lucy. Aren't they cute!

We took a picture of all my siblings attending this year. Two are missing but hopefully next year we can all be there. I love you all-thanks for being my family.

We finally got a picture of son John, wife Jessica and daughter Annie with me. I do so love spending time with them-we don't look too bad if I do say so myself. The only thing missing is Steve and Jaci's family-maybe next year!!!!
Unfortunately we can only be serious for so long-I'm glad we have the other picture just so you know we aren't completely goofy. It is fun to have fun-thanks God for humor!
