Cuteness Runamuck: July 4th, 2011

This year, for the fourth, we had a two family gatherings.

One was at my paternal aunt's, one at my mom's. 
There was much food, much fellowship, and much love to go around...

Since our county is in a serious drought, we had no fireworks (except at special protected places), so we just had to make do with these sparklers!
Have I mentioned how I love my grands? 
All were present except grandgirl Audrey in WI. 

I am thankful for all who made these days possible.
I am very thankful for my freedom.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Independence Day.
