Independence Day

I love the fourth of July. Every year, since I can remember, we go to my parents house, barbeque giant T-Bone steaks (purchased by my sweet grandparents) and light fire works, and somebody usually almost blows their hand off. Ah tradition. . . .

The sweet grandparents

They have walker races.

Tyler and his D (right before he left)

They are very very handsome.

Grandma's sandbox.

Evan got carsick (what else is new?) and puked on himself.

He was just cleaning up the mess.

Hazel was sharing some of her infinite wisdom with my grandpa.

For example, how to hold a flower to your nose, just by sniffing it.

Jessi painted the kids faces.

David's Texas flag.

Ah Kati! Watch out! Tim is going to squash your head!!!

Table for two

Meaty goodness

Hazel and Tyler throwing Pops.

My baby and me (my hand isn't really that giant)

Tim wrote this with smoke bombs

Happy 4th of July!
