4th of July, Small Town Style.

Grilling + Friends + Family + Cold Drinks + Giant Slip n' Slide + Fireworks + Big Kid Jenga + America's Birthday = One of the most fun day of the year!  Yesterday was definitely a 4th of July for the books.  After spending the morning cutting up wood, gathering tarps, hoses, and a hole lot of baby oil, it was time for the fun to begin.  We staked down a huge tarp in the back yard and decided to make a game out of it--2 teams, the goal: slide down, bounce the ball into your drink, drink it and run back.  First team to finish wins.  I have no idea how many rounds we played, but man am I sore today!
Next it was onto Jenga.  I've never seen one this big, but it worked successfully.  Luckily I made through each time I was up, and Mandi (the creator of the game and the girl on the left side of the picture) was the loser :)
After supper, we washed up and like every American out there, big city or small town, headed out to watch some fireworks (Although we watched them in the middle of  a field ;) ).  Happy 4th everyone!
