Fourth of July long weekend

Rob and I spent the weekend before the 4th at the lake with mom, dad, Janet, Denny, Anne, Nic, Gena, Peggy, Jerry, Steve Hayes, Zac and Olivia. Saturday we had a pot luck where dad and mom deep fried TWO turkeys! It was such a treat to have that again and as usual there was so much food. Dad went to Missouri again this year to get the fireworks with my Uncle Denny. Zac helped dad light off the fireworks this year and he loved it!! He is already excited for next year when he will be able to help out again. The fireworks this year were so incredible! About 30 people came to watch and everyone keep saying that it was the best display so far.
James and Natalie stopped by on Sunday and were able to stay until Monday. We had fun playing cards and just hanging out with them. Rob and I were lucky enough to be able to stay until Tuesday. The weather didn't cooperate as much as we would have liked to for Monday and Tuesday but at least we had great weather for Friday and Saturday.

Here is a picture of a family of loons we came across while taking Zac and Olivia for a boat ride.
