Independence Day!

Our neighbors, the Trustys, came over to help us celebrate 4th of July. Ryan is in Southeast Asia with Scott (just for the heck of it), so it was just the four of us and the Trustys. We barbecued some burgers and hot dogs and had some wonderful pie (thank you, Barbara and Tarin!) as well as some baked beans, potato salad, chips, etc. We had such a nice time visiting that we kept forgetting to take photos, but we did get a few. (Sorry, Karen, I didn't get any of you and me--the one Gene took inside was really dark).


Our new chalkboard that we painted and framed on our kitchen/garage door!


Leah is all decked out for the holiday

Gene cooking the burgers and dogs



Richard and his mom, Barbara, watching Gene grill



Apparently Richard sees something interesting "over there"




Looks like Tarin sees it too


Our poor dogs have to endure such humiliation - here's Dakota in her 4th of July outfit




And, I don't know what Bristow is supposed to be here (a ghost?)



Krista zonked out at the end of the day

You guys think you're so patriotic with your red, white, and blue, and your dog costumes, and your grill, and your pool, and your company!

Somehow I missed this post... what the heck? anyway, what's particularly funny about dakota is that she looks like an old man dog with girly junk on :)
