This year for the 4th, Mary, Chrissie's mom, had invited us over to her house to eat and play. She lives right on the lake and has all kinds of "toys" for young and young at heart alike. We had a WONDERFUL time and ate our brains out. I can say that I ate more on the 4th than I probably will at Christmas or Thanksgiving. Mary totally outdid herself. I cannot even recount all the food, but there was every kind of "salad" you could imagine: carrot/raisin, potato, pea, avocado and fruit, 30 slabs of ribs all in different containers with each container having a different homemade seasoning, chicken, deviled eggs, chips and 6 different types of dip, corn on the cob, hot dogs, 60 chicken drumsticks, baked beans, mac and cheese...and that doesn't include desserts. Oh, and there was watermelon later. And homemade icecream. OH LORD. Here's some pictures from our fun day.
I've never seen anyone have a "map" of the menu. As much food as she had, I guess Mary had to have some type of written plan.
Jaggar still cannot find it in himself to hold his own cup. He will pick it up, bring it to you, and scream for you to do it for him though.

Some of the ribs
Desserts: the strawberry cobbler and the cake with the whipped cream icing were my faves.
That is a LOT of potato salad.
Travis wouldn't let me wear my sunglasses on the jet ski because of the chance of them being lost forever. I think he just wanted to wear them.
Getting ready to jet ski. 
Then Sean took Sage and Isacah out.
We could hear them squealing the entire way on their way out.
Sean let each of them drive. He said that Sage would go as fast as it would go...teaching her to drive should be a blast!
