We had a super great 4th of July. We started off the festivities by occupying the kidses with a photo scavenger hunt while the grown-ups BBQ'ed and visited.
The kids split up into two teams. Each team got a camera and a list of summer related items that they had to go out and take photos of.
Last item on the list......have someone take a picture of your team
After the hamburgers and hotdogs, the kids drew new teams, were given a stack of newspapers and a roll of masking tape and were told to dress-up an Uncle Sam.
And then it was on to a little arts-n-crafts. 4th of July t-shirts with glow in the dark paints.
This is Aaron's finished project. When you turn out the lights the stars glow. 
The guys don't get off the hook so easy this year. First, they get to put on their prettiest shower cap, then the gals covered their heads with shaving cream.
The object of this game is to toss dot candies at your partner's shaving cream hair-do and get as many of them to stay put as possible.
And because they were all such good sports, they all got lil' squirt fire extinguishers
And last but not least----water balloon bobbing
About a year ago, Timmy decided that it would be in my best interest to put me in a Honda Civic for the extensive one block commute that I have four days a week to the courthouse. It all sounded good in theory until you had to watch the horror show of shoving in and yanking out all six feet of me from that little weeble-wobble car. I don't know if many of you know this (it's kinda of a sensitive subject that I don't like to speak about) but I was born with a defect where every time I bend over, my underpants ride up and my blouse rides down and all my bad parts are exposed and this car seemed to amplify my problem.
