4th of July fun in the Sun

The 4th of July was a great day this year. We had a backyard picnic at Doug and Jessica's. They have a nice large tree that provided lots of nice shade. We had fried chicken, cooked outside for easy clean up, potato salad, cucumber mint salad, fresh corn on the cob and watermelon.


After playing yard games which weren't a very big hit, Jessica got out the water slide which was a huge hit. All four boys had a ball playing in it and spraying me. Braeden thought that was great to spray me and I must admit it did feel good as it was a hot day.

After playing in the water we had ice cream with fudge topping, blueberries, raspberries and a pastry. I think it was well liked by all as can be seen in the pictures. Happy fun 4th.
