OUR HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA CELEBRATION

Kelly and Crystal rode up together on July 1st. They helped me so much for our party, I don't know what I would have done without them. The first thing the grand kids wanted to do was go for a tractor ride. The girl next to Addy is her friend, Victoria. Alex is missing, he came the next day with his dad.

July 2nd, Party Day--first things first, dress in red, white and blue.

We had about 50 guests --- family and

Siblings and

friends came to the party.

Can you think of a better place to eat a popsicle?

We had all kinds of deeeelicious food. This is the neatest Independence Day cake and the cake maker, my friend, Lynn.

mmmmm more food

We had lots of fun things to do. Alex brought his dirt bike.

Quad cruisin'

Shotgun shooting. Crystal, Addy, and Victoria all shot for the first time and I think they each got at least 1 pigeon. Kelly shot before and did good also.

At the end of the day, Rub a dub dub, 3 kiddies in a tub, a Payton, an "O" man and a dirty "D" boy.

2nd of July fireworks, with Alex, Crystal and me.

Loaded up and ready to drive home on July 4th.

Thanks soooo much for coming and for all your wonderful help!!!!!
