Celebrating the Fourth of July

We celebrated the Fourth of July this past weekend with lots of fun, food and family.
I only took about 200 pictures (220 to be exact, but a few were for work...)
I will only show you a few here (50 or 60). If you want to see the rest of them you will have to come and visit!

Laura enjoying a laugh....... Mom and Dad enjoyed it too!

Nick fell in love with Shotzie!
Mark told Shotzie to Kennel Up and all of the girls climbed in the kennel!

I will add a few more pictures each day... for some reason I can't get anymore pictures to up load.
