Celebarting America's 232nd Birthday at Grandpa's

I tired to get Patrick to say "Happy 232nd Birthday America" but he wasn't into it.

We celebrated the 4th of July with a clambake at Brian's dad's house. It was a lot of fun that tired the kids right out. If you can judge the degree of fun by the ring that is left around the bath tub afterwards, then the amount of fun Pal and Sissy at was off the charts!

The kids had lots of fun........
being safe by the pool,

splashin',

lovin',

loading up on sugar,

and just pallin' around with cousins!



Patrick was eager to help Grandpa build a fire. We had the makings for S'mores, although Patrick was only interested in burning things, like the marshmallows and his stick. Who cares about graham cracker and chocolate when there is fire around?? He truly is a BOY!
Patrick: Dad, I just want to poke the fire with my stick.
Dad: No.
Repeat 500+ times :)


Patrick and Megan decided if they couldn't poke at the fire then they would poke at Uncle Dan and Uncle Rich and Uncle Bob/Grandpa and T-T.
