Eating, Drinking, Slip n Sliding...All While Independent From England

Rusty and Jennifer had a 4th of July gathering that had everything. They grilled delicious food. We drank fantastic beverages and the adults showed the children exactly how the Slip n' Slide was intended for use. We played croquet, even flaming croquet as the night wore on. Sarah got to hang out with her first crush, Bob and consume her own body weight in cherries. Both girls, up way past their bedtime, enjoyed playing with sparklers. I was surprised Fire Marshall Kate would have anything to do with them, but she was very brave. Big night. Here are some photos I stole from Rusty because we forgot to bring our camera.

What is being written in sparkler? Does it say Sarah?

It says Margaret...or part of Margaret. It's pretty cool, no? Remember it's backwards so, you know, adjust your brain for that.

I thought I was the only person still wearing Tevas. Last summer I had to call abbadabba (whatever the shoe store in Atlanta) to hold them. They were very nice and informed me they do not have a wide selection of Tevas. After I bought them, the funny sales person asked if that was a Swatch on my wrist. I replied yes, she joked about how I'm behind on fashion. So true!!!

REI has shelves of Tevas! His flipflops are also Tevas and I buy 2 pairs of the awesome multi-strap flip flops they came out with a few years ago annually. You can tell abbadabba to stick it where the sun don't shine. As for Swatch, how can THAT be out of style when the SMART cars are so hep?
