Independence Day {2}

We really celebrated Independence day on the Saturday after the fourth with our annual Fourth of July party! Maggie arrived the night before in time for our party! I was so happy she could be there for it! We spent the day swimming, shooting, storytelling, holding sweet babies, drinking delicious sangria, eating yummy food, making new friends, playing bean bags, a little late night four wheeler ride;), fireworks of course thanks to one of the guys who came, and of course our traditional Cranium into the wee hours of the morning! It was an amazing and fun day with family and friends!     
MAGGIE and my niece! So sweet!

Hannah's waiting to get in the pool!



 I think we went through about six gallons of sangria!!! Wow I think it's safe to say that everyone liked it! 
Some of the cute little girls!
SURPRISE!
My cousin Molly came! She initially said that she wasn't going to be able to make it, but fortunately her plans changed and she surprised everyone and showed up! In style of course in her sweet Brat Trot mascot costume!


The guys in their element shooting! My cousin and I even hit a couple clay pigeons too! 
My nephew and Uncle gunman! As we have nicknamed him! Look at him standing there all CUTE with his hands on his hips, what a HAM!
Watching the fireworks!

I'm eating chips!

My beautiful Mom and cousin! It was deep late night conversation!




I think she likes babies=) 
Cousin love!
I can't wait for next year=)

God Bless America!
