So, this year, once again, the fourth of July would not be complete without fireworks at mom and dad's. This year there were over 250 people there. And Renny put on an excellent show. The fireworks went on for nearly 20 minutes (if you don't think that is very long you have to know that is 20 minutes non stop. No gaps, no time without fireworks going off. And they are put in special order. Renny labels them each with a number and they are done in order and usually more than one at a time.) and were the best we have ever had.
Of course there was lots of food. Julie is in charge of this. She puts on quite a spread and the line of people went down the driveway and around the corner.
Frank works the crowd and gets everything in order. Lorna can be found helping out where ever she is needed.
This year Kaylynn came with us. If she will still go out with Sam after seeing his family in action, then she must like him!!
Ike scoping out the crowd. He too can be found everywhere doing everything.
Lorna and Renny handing out the kid fireworks before the big show. They let the kids play around and do fireworks for about an hour.
And before it all begins we all gather in the kitchen and have a family prayer. Just family.
Our group ready for the show. We got there earlier than usual this year and got good seats!
Teaghan!! She has gotten so cute. A little Lorna!
Peggy (Orey had to work) with Jessie and Lanie (Ike's little girl). Lanie does not like the loud noises and comes prepared!
Courtney and Mike with Renny and Katie and Kurt (Courtney's boy) in front.
Dad and Ike after the show!! Does Ike look familiar? Maybe Frank 30 years ago?
Frank and Julie after a very successful evening!! Thanks mom and dad for good food and a good show!! We love you!! Millie
