4th of July

We spent the 4th of July weekend in Lebo and although the weather wasn't always cooperating, we had a great time!
Always fun to go to the school and see everyone supporting the high school classes - they even had a volleyball tournament Saturday morning and Garrett & Breckyn invited us to play on their team. 5 teams participated and 3 out of the 5 were high school girl teams. . . . . . we had a great time playing - however, my body is just now beginning to feel normal. Seriously, my arms hurt the first day, then my legs and then my stomach. I'm too young to feel this old!




Whitney was on the dunk tank (cheerleading fundraiser) so we all had to go down and check it out.

Brady was successful with this throw :)


Where else do you see main street shut down with this in the middle of the street?


We also went and watched some of the Lyndon horse show Sunday morning. Breckyn, BT, Brogan and Garrett all showed. Our boys and Brynna participated in the stick horse race and had fun - talking about "who was riding who" was a big discussion topic :) All of the kids got a ribbon and a gold dollar, so that was very cool.



Saturday's parade got rained out -


luckily for Brady, because the kids got big ideas and he was able to get involved with decorating Annie's (bulldog) wagon and walking in the parade with the "big kids" for the reschedule on Sunday! He was very excited and even though it was raining Sunday night, the PARADE WAS ON!




Ed got 2 big boxes of fireworks from a coworker and the boys were very excited to try everything out this year. They got to light almost everything and loved it! Brett thought it was ALMOST as good as Christmas :)

Brett had a weird smoke fetish and said "Yum!" every time a smoke bomb was lit.




Watching the snakes grow. . ..

Don't give Brett any matches at home :) Looks like a fun weekend. Does your brother still show horses? Why didn't you???
