The 4th was wonderfully busy as usual this year. Derrick, Brogun and I (Sienna was in Wayne County spending time with her family there) got up early and went to the parade in Richfield. My family has always met together at Nowers Chevron, but this year most of them were out of town. Mom and Dad went to Flaming Gorge for the week with some friends. Sounds like they may have had too much fun.. surprised we got dad to come back home!
Enjoyed the parade with Mike and Nikkie Hart and then raced home for a delicious BBQ with the Moore crew. Gotta say that Derrick can really cook a mean steak. YUMMY!
That evening we all went to Salina to El Mexicano for dinner for my sister in law Tiffany's Birthday! We considered the rodeo, but the look of the clouds rolling in made us decide otherwise...
We ended our evening enjoying the fireworks with Marsha, Nikkie, Mike, Roger, Gina and there cute little bunch. Sienna even made it back in time.
Needless to say we were all exhausted by the end of the night. It was a bit of a bitter sweet for me.. Memories of the 4th with the family at Grandpa and Grandma Knaphus's house will always be a treasure I will miss. But am excited to start new traditions and memories with my sweet little family.
