LoveJuly 4th
Well it is July 4th. We used to celebrate. ( the 4th And the 3rd was our anniversary). I would start early and fry chicken and make potato salad and the works for everyone. We would start around 2 o'clock. We got to talk for a while then the guys would move outside and play horseshoes until dark. Then they would move inside and play poker. The girls would sit around and talk and cheer on there favorite horseshoe player. once in a while they were allowed to play. While they guys were waiting they would tell stories about things they did when they were young. Things I did not know about. If I had known I probably would have beat them within an inch of there lives. The children would play themselves out, and would fall asleep in front of the TV. We always had Disney Movies for them. The TV was always on. We tried last year to have the get together but it didn't work. We were missing the most important person. This year we didn't even try. The older grandchildren will remember the good times. As for the younger ones it will be up to their parents to start their own traditions. I hope you all have a wonderful day. KM
