Finally a few moments to post pics!!!

Thursday night we went to Adam's aunt and uncles house and watched the Frankenmuth fire works with his whole family. There was lost of good food, and great family times. They had a band there too, that was VERY good!!!



Friday night we went to the Saginaw fireworks with "G", Papa, Aunt Robin and Uncle Tim. We first had a BBQ at "G" and Papa's house, then got a game of whiffle ball in (someone had to run for Aunt Robin) although she was playing the out field and ran after a fly ball and caught it. Tim said he was waiting for her to slide on her tummy to catch it, LOL. We had fun, then left early to get good seats. We played a few games, made 1 potty trip, and 1 trip for an elephant ear and cheese fries, then the fun began. These pics are of the Saginaw fire works.

Saturday we went to the Dixie Motor Speedway to watch their eve of destruction!! It was us four, "G", Papa, Aunt Robin, Uncle Tim, cousins Delaney and Faythe, Aunt Sharon, and Uncle Mike. Before the races started, the boys and I rode on a school bus that races in the figure 8. We went around the 1/2 mile track twice, waving at Adam as we came by, then went thru the pits. The boys had a blast. We sat right in front and I was talking to our driver. We found out that he drives in the bus figure 8, and had flipped his bus in the fall last year (which we were at!!) AHHH

They had their regular races, then did a few songs in the middle of the race track. Delaney and Faythe went out to do the YMCA and the chicken dance!! WTG girls!!

They then had the figure 8 bus races. 1 of the buses flipped again this year!!! Then they had the trailer races, where the car/van/truck is pulling some sort of trailer, whether it be a boat, camper, whatever.....wow what a MESS!!! We had a blast though.

Bryce STILL has sensitive ears, and hates loud noises!! He wears his ear muff type things whenever we go someplace thats going to be loud!!

I thought I had commented on these already?? Doy! Very very cool! I think those bus races would be insane. One of my former students had an older brother that raced an Oreo bus and it ended up crashing too.

Glad you had a nice 4th.
