I am posting for journal purposes only. Pictures and happening are a lot like previous years. We celebrated at Brianne and Jarod's due to the extra friends invited, and room needed to celebrate. Brianne is always nice to include others who don't have family around to celebrate with. This year she invited the Nelsons and the Solgere families, friend Daphne, and former student from NC, Toya. Rod, Jarod's dad was also visiting. We had a house full!
Rod and Jarod grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. Inside... fruit, salads, chips, dessert, which included homemade banana ice cream, were awaiting all of us, very hungry people. We ate, visited, and attempted fireworks, but then the rain came. We thought we might call it night, but it stopped, and the fireworks resumed.
The kids are getting older and enjoyed them. I could hear little Zeke say "again, again." No matter how big, or how loud, he loved them. All the grands but Zeke, held a roman candle as it shot into the sky. Papa (actually neither was I) a fan of that, but they had a ball.
