July 4th Week End

We had a lot of fun!! We are lucky enough to have 2/3 of our family together for the Holiday.


I made a couple of salads and a pineapple upside down cake and we headed for the Bay.The 4th was overcast until we decided to head in and eat...

Honey made one of his famous "moist pork" roast...but before we came home we had time to play...

Here the flag goes up when some one takes a spill.

The water was choppy and the breeze was a little nippy...


But they tried to do some Lake/Bay surfing...



Tiny Dancer would wave to who ever fell and yell, "Dye-dye, seeya! she would then start calling "Ware-youuu?" until she could spot them and then she would laugh.



Tiny Dancer's Daddy gave surfing a try... Uncle B. gave him pointers and instructions and told him the most important thing of all-when you fall-LET GO OF THE ROPE!
Auntie A. was able to surf for the longest time on the 4th!!!
On the 5th our beautiful green eyed girl was up and wake boarding and she looked like she was having a blast even though the water was still a little choppy.



Between turns the kids would play in the water for a while so they wouldn't get bored. Here they are waiting for the waves to come their way...


Next Uncle B. was up to surf. You can't really tell from this picture but the wake is really quite big, it helped that Gramp and myself were sitting in the back to help that along.


Here is another first try, after receiving instructions from Auntie A. our blue eyed girl was ready to give knee boarding a go...




on the 5th when the sun came out you could find the girl's were all girls love to be at this age...

There were a lot of blue dragonfly's and this little guy found our brown eyed boy irresistible!


Her goes our brown eyed boy now-looking relaxed isn't he...




Next it was that blue eyed boy's turn to surf. He and his dad have a bit of a thing going to see who can go the longest-a little competition can be a good thing.

the spills are part of the fun-usually-every now and again they would take one that would hurt-this wasn't one of those.

Play break again...



Hanging out with cousin's is fun.


This time a little blue dragonfly was content to sit in Mr. Blue eye's hand for a while..

It tried to go, but kept coming back for visits...

So as you can see we had a good time on the Bay. We had good eat's, good company, and fireworks...
What more could you ask?!
And I was so excited to get a black & white dragonfly to pose for me on the 2nd I had to show you!



Remember;
We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance.
Encourage each other!!!
