Happy Birthday America!!!

The 4th...Rick and I were invited to join some folks that we know from Charleston & McChord for a cookout. (They are stationed here, now) It was a rainy afternoon, but we made it work. We had great food, lots of kids, and Carl put on a wonderful fireworks display!
Ash was out the door as soon as we mentioned a party. She sampled our star cookies on the way! Ashlyn wore a special 4th dress in honor & memory of Nana Hurst's Birthday!
Look Nana! I found NASCAR in Oklahoma! There were several toys, but after one ride in a Monster truck, Ashlyn decided that this "purtee car" was her favorite!

A wagon ride through the neighborhood was also a hit! Watching Mr. Adam light colored smoke bombs. Ashlyn loved them. "More, more, please!"
Everyone hanging out & watching a few fireworks between the showers. Once it got dark, the sky actually held together for us.
