Fourth of July Weekend!



That is the longest slideshow. I hope you had the time to watch it. If you are busy, I understand.

I had a lot of fun this weekend with family. My dad's brothers and him always get together on the 4th. My Grandpa loved the 4th and to honor him they decided that they would always get together and celebrate. Each year they switch off whose house they go to and this year was our turn in good ol' Rhinelander. A few of my cousins also came which was nice. We pretty much ate and ate and ate. Good times!

On Friday we went up to Wausau and watched a Wisconsin Woodchuck baseball game. This is a summer collegiate team. I remember when these boys were hot stuff. Now they just are little and young although they can still be handsome! My friend, Marla, met us there which was also nice! It was fun!

Saturday was the party and basically at our parties all we do is sit around and eat and drink and be merry. My uncles, a few cousins, dad, and brother- in- law love to play poker so they did that most of the day. That night we went to a parking lot down the road and watched the Rhinelander City fireworks. They were not as good as they were in years past but I think a lot of people probably noticed that this year due to the budget cuts everywhere. I actually think the little display at the ballpark on Friday was better.

Well, today I am off to fish for a while. I think real worms are going to do the trick today. Later, I may be driving down to Wausau to go to softball practice and hang with friends. It is a beautiful day. The wind is blowing and it is sunny. So it is nice but not too hot. I like it!
