4th of JULY!!

Happy 4th of July (A little late) Our family loves the 4th of July...especially Brian...it is his favorite holiday. All the younger kids camp out on the parade route to be sure we get a great seat. We are also very lucky to have the owner of Lon's Cookin in our family. We camp out right in front of his place. The parade starts at nine and of course we need to be there at 8:30 to be sure we are ready and in our seats before the jets fly over (Brian's favorite). Then we watch the parade which is always fun with all of the CARTER'S...our family is growing and we are loving it. Later we head over the Nate & Tiffany's for a BBQ and swimming (it is great to have a pool in the family ) We spend the afternoon there. Then we can't miss the Leishman's party....They have popcorn, burgers, salads, snowies and whatever else you can think of. Thanks Leishman's!! Then off to the park for a friendly family game of baseball. We use a wiffle ball and bat and it is kids against adults. The kids usually win but now that we are all growing up and getting married....The adults may start getting some win's under there belts. Then of course we finish the night of with fireworks of our own as well as the stadium of fire...We have a great view from Brian's parents house. I should have taken more pictures but I didn't....So we are PROUND TO BE AMERICANS!! (And this year we were glad to have my sister Marci come and hangout with us.
