July 4th

So today we got up early and headed to Chaffinch Island to find our perfect picnic spot for the day.  And when I say early, well, we were there at 8:30!

Once we found our spot we began the unloading of the car.  Gosh, we took a ton of stuff.  After the first trip we needed the bug spray right away!

By 9:30 we were all settled in and our guest were not set to arrive until 12.  So Erin and Joe took the kayaks out to try fishing from the boat.

At around 10:30 Kelley and her girls, Colleen and Kacey arrived.  We had so much fun.  At 12 Marcy, Randy, David and Danny arrived.  Joe started up the BBQ grill and we had hamburgers, hot dogs and corn on the cob.  Christa, Megan, and Brenna also arrived right in time for the food.

The girls and big kids all played in the water, fished (although nothing the whole day was to be caught) and rode the kayaks.  By 4:30 everyone was gone and we cleaned up and headed home.

After taking a good shower and unloading the car, we went to the Appleman's for dinner.
