24th Celebration


Corby took Teesh, Malia, Bria and Ada for some good ole fashion fishing in the wee hours on this glorious holiday.
Sierra was working and I stayed home to create this fabulous spread. I made hamburger patties, potato salad, jello jigglers, deviled eggs and prep work for a variety of smores for later.

Grandma was down for some other obligation so she swung by and joined us for the BBQ and firework show.

Teesh had to work at Seven Peaks so after a quick dinner she was gone. Sierra invited Rod to come hang out for the evening. While we waited for Teesh to return we enjoyed some of the fireworks Dad had bought for our entertainment.
Malia had her good friend Courtney come over for smores and fireworks

Finally, the sun went down, Teesh returned, and the rest of the evening could begin including the huge 'o bon fire
Grandma Ellis made us these fantastic hot dog sticks with a even cooler bag. We have used them for countless years but someone borrowed them and we haven't seen them since. Tonight's sticks were compliments from our near by tree branches. Not exactly perfect  but it got the job done.


Sparklers?













Corby usually views fireworks as a huge waste of money, so sparklers with a few small other items is our extent but Corby went all out this year. We had the show for the neighborhood.






I think this is such a sweet picture. Teesh lovingly helping Ada, light her firework. Sisters, awe!


Another successful holiday. So grateful for time spent with family and friends! Life is good.
