July 3rd - the plan was to go to the foam party & then fireworks at Kelly Park later that night. So much for plans right? We started the morning by shoveling dirt - lots of dirt. Mom has been needing to get the ground right in front of the house filled back in after 35 years of settling - we also tore out the old shrubs several weeks ago. Jim was able to load the dirt with a backhoe, but we got to shovel it off by hand. It was a good job done.
It got good and chilly that afternoon so we talked the girls into a 4-wheeler ride instead of the foam party - I think that had more fun anyway.

Dutch oven chicken & potatoes were next - Yummy!

Look at this:
Its a beautiful view from my back yard !
Seth & Shelby headed to town for the FFA ice cream social, but didn't make it far before Seth tried to turn his truck around & went right off the road - high centered. It takes talent to stay on the road all winter & then run off on the 4th of July weekend.
Thanks for the entertainment Seth!
The rest of us decided that the fireworks in town didn't sound that great anymore, so a fire in the backyard was a better option:
We had a great time just making smores & talking - the Stoors across the valley even provided some pretty great fireworks. It was a pretty great way to celebrate!
