4th of July Traditions

It has been a Norman family tradition to go to the canyon or park for a 4th of July breakfast.
We all bring out stoves and food and cook up bacon, eggs and pancakes.
This year since the 4th fell on a Sunday we did our activities on Saturday.
It was actually cool and windy which made it a real challenge to fix and eat breakfast with everything blowing around.

Cole cooked pancakes for awhile and finally got a chance to eat some while Jandie reads her book for something to do.
Aunt Elaine came prepared a was wearing a scarf.

We had the Edwards family BBQ at our house again this year and enjoyed having Karen's family here from California. After we ate the kids all played a game of Croquet.

Then we ate homemade ice cream and had our firework show.

I tried my luck at taking pictures in the dark, which didn't turn out so well, but I did get a few pictures of Lyndie and Nate doing sparklers.
