We started our fourth like every other year- Jeremy running around with Samantha, getting the food preparations done for my parents' annual hosting.
Next year we won't have to buy raspberries or strawberries!

| Third year of berries- this is a typical days harvest of raspberries, and the first pick of the second round of strawberries that are producing |
A quick trip down memory lane...

A recently common occurrence at my parents' place:
 |
| We all heard a loud SMACK and turned around to see this |
 |
| Second time in a week and Amanda was excited! |
 |
| Papa took care of it |
 |
| Samantha was then able to continue with her favorite part of the night |
My mom said, "I'm ONLY doing immediate family this year!"
 |
| So only three other families were invited over. I think the total head count was 21 (23 if counting those in-utero). |
 |
| Sam had to have braids like Lucy. Amanda is ever present if there is a camera nearby. |
 |
| Sam stepped on a firecracker spark and got a nice hole in her foot. |
 |
| Daddy took good care of her. |
While waiting for the meds to be bought from the store she was able to enjoy the big fireworks from my lap. I attempted a mother-daughter picture...
 |
| How about without the foot? |
 |
| there we go |
 |
| These two play so well together now! Their giggles are non-stop. |
Happy 4th!

We do worry about Amanda's excitement over a dead bird...ahem. :-o
She and Lucy are getting prettier by the day.
Did you know you have an advertisement from Zinio for a Playboy subscription???
