Fourth of July


Kyla, Jed, Emma and Kelli spent the morning of the 4th at the Harrisburg parade with Joanna and Anne Marie. Emma collected quite a bunch of candy....I think maybe we were kind of jypped as kids. In the parades we experienced the small amount of candy that was thrown out was fought after by about 10 kids in each place. The afternoon and evening found us celebrating at Grandma and Grandad's house (a.k.a. our old home). We had hamburgers, hotdogs, good salads and yummy desserts. We watched the fireworks which several of the neighbors always have. It is pretty darn good....someone spends a lot of money on those fireworks! Emma spent the day playing with Braedyn and Greyson and got to light her very own sparklers. Of course Kyla had to do the sparkler dance which in the past has burnt the linoleum in their kitchen. We also picked cherries to make a pie. Kyla has made jam with hers and also made a cherry crisp. That tree was loaded this year!
