Happy Fourth of July

Just wanted to take a moment to say Happy Fourth of July to everyone. I have a super busy day today (church, then set-up for camp, then picnic, then prep for camp, then sleepy-time). We're not having a big family gathering together today, which will be new.

Years past, we've had the entire family here. Grilled brats, potato salad, baked beans. It's been a tradition for a long time. Last year, Bailey (Kristopher & Andrea's daughter) held her first sparkler. Kevin was here. The year before, Garrys were here. It was great.

This year, everyone's gone. So no big party. But I'm going to Kath & Brian's instead. I'll bring corn salad. It'll be good-times-noodle-salad. Fun.

But I did want to say Happy Fourth. Happy Independence Day. Please don't watch that movie. But have a happy day!
