Independence Day In Independence
It was quite the celebration weekend. This year we hosted Independence Day. It's been a few years since we had most of the familiy here. When we were in Lewiston, we had quite the gatherings (since we had the pool and boat then!) so this was very fun for us to have the holiday back in our home!
The guys are hanging out watching the Mariners and catching up on whatever it is guys talk about when there's a game going on!
It was a hot day so Greg cooked his bacon and meat for his specialty beans on the griddle on the deck - didn't want to heat up the house! Rusty says......yum......please!?!?!?!?
We took in the old fashioned parade - Bryan found himself a seat on our friends' pickup and kept himself cool under the big umbrella!
We decided to wear our "Team Pelican" shirts: Here are Beth, Bryan, Greg, me, Mom and Dad!
On Sunday morning, the family gathered for breakfast along with friends of ours that have been a part of the festivities too. We really enjoyed ourselves and are looking forward to this again next year. We have decided what better way to celebrate our great country than in Independence on Independence Day!!
