Happy Independance Day! Dinner at Granny and Grandad's






























We had a great time in Eagar and celebrating our nation's birthday! We enjoyed dinner at Granny and Grandad Nelson's after the parade. Keldon and Chandler took down Grandad's old flag and replaced it with a new one. The old flag can be properly disposed during a Boy Scout Ceremony. Grandma Childers was able to join us and it was a real treat to have her there. She was in the parade and was dressed pretty in pink. She came over a little injured since a lady fell off a float and onto her! She was sore for several days after that, but we are glad she is ok. Aunt Cherai showed off her "new bod" and Grandad thinks she will blow away now that she is so skinny. We enjoyed reliving old times and being together. The kids built a great stick fort and played by the pond. Poor Nicholas fell when he was hauled on a rope swing. He endured some sore ribs, but lives to tell about it. We were also to visit Great Aunt Winnie at her house and enjoyed talking with her. It is always fun to be with family. We enjoyed being together. It had been a long time since we were all able to get together as sisters. We were only missing Seneca (she was with her dad), and Aaron (out fighting fires. Even with only two gone there was a hole, but maybe next year everyone can be together.
