Fourth of July Celebration!





Happy Fourth of July! We celebrated the day by going to our Ward's Annual Fourth of July breakfast. There were lots of people there. It seems to bring out all the people that we don't usually see on Sundays! We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast of pancakes, eggs, sausage and lots of fresh fruit. Yummy! What a wonderful way to start our celebration!
In the evening we were invited to a lovely celebration at Kent and Jeanne's. It was terrific! We enjoyed swimming with the kids. It was overcast in the afternoon which cooled it down a little bit. Carl enjoyed playing pool with some of the other guests there. He was sure happy about that! There was a boat race in the pool with the inflatable boats. I, Debra, helped bring the B Team to the finish first! Sorry, we forgot to get pictures! It was my buff arm strength that brought us the win! After the barbeque there was a pie baking contest. Yours truly won the prize for the most patriotic pie! It was a red, white and blue Jello pie - pictured above. A gift card to Cold Stone Creamery was my prize! Yummy! I also made some Red, White and Blue dipped strawberries to share. They were a big hit. We arrived home just in time to catch the fireworks in our new neighborhood. There's a perfect spot to watch just down the street! Hope your celebration was awesome too!
