Happy Birthday!!!

We spent the 4th of July at Candace and Brian's house. It was Candace's birthday and we celebrated at their house this year. Which was different, cause it's always at our house. It was very nice to have it somewhere else for a change. Candace turned 28 years old today.
Everyone was there, Aunt Patsy, Big Joe, Joey, Tabetha and Daniel, Me and Papaw, Jeremy and he took his girlfriend Tyla and all of Candace and Brians crew.
We had a cookout, which almost caught the whole place on fire. The grill was smoking so bad, but it all turned out good. Hamburgers, Hot dogs, Brats, Corn on the cob, Baked Beans, Mac and cheese, Watermelon, Flag cake and Flag cupcakes, veggies, chips and dip, Cheese Ball and crackers. We had it all and it all was very good.

We played volley ball, papaw tried to play with one hand. He had a beer in the other and wasn't going to put it down.

Everyone was playing Cornhole. I even had Adrian as a partner, and he's pretty good. We didn't do too bad, but we didn't win either. Daniel and Brian were on a team and they were beating everyone.

Fishing. Catfish weren't biting as much today, but the bluegills were everywhere and the kids were catching one every time they threw their line in the water. Aunt Patsy spotted a snake in the pond and Brian got it out and chopped off it's head. It was really gross. The snake was about 3 1/2 feet long.
The fireworks show was fantastic. All of us pitched in and got as much fireworks as we could afford and the show was great. We had all sort of them. But they were loud. The guys lit them off across the pond. It was a long day, but we all had fun and there were no fights and no one got hurt this time. Usually someone gets hurt or there is a big augment, but not this time, everyone behaved. We didn't get home until almost around midnight.
So Until next time, hope all is well and be safe.
