4th of July holiday

~We had a grand time this weekend with our dear friends. We drove to their home on saturday evening so we could be there the next day for church, yeah, we got to stay for evening service as well.

~Monday, the 4th of July we hung out at their house because we figured the beach would be crowded and we really didn't want to see all the ick and drinking we knew would be going on. So we decided to stay home and have fun there. Christina invited several people over for supper and we ate steaks, corn on the cob, jalapeno poppers, ribs and later had smores and ice cream. We played games and stayed up until 1:30 am to finish a domino's game.
~One mother/daughter that was there said it was the most fun they had had in a long time.

~Tuesday we decided to go to the beach and had a good day there. We got home late last night and were all very tired and happy.

~Today I am washing clothes, I picked the garden and a few okra got over grown but I still was able to get two trays of sliced okra into the dehydrator. The girls like dried okra, they say it tastes like friend okra without the calories and fat.
I also found two nice cucumbers which I promptly sliced into the sugar/vinegar in the fridge.
There were also several tomatoes that were ripe and ready to pick.
