Visits, Pirates, and Flip Flop Incidents










We had a really fun 4th of July weekend up at the Lake. It kicked off with a visit from Kathleen and Emmett, which was wonderful, on Friday. Friday night involved some martini-fueled bag playing with all the cousins that we don't have much photographic evidence of. Speaking of photography, Tia brought along her camera (which is bigger than her) for school and got a few shots. Then on Saturday there was the annual parade on the island. This year was a pirate theme, so the boys got tattooed and scarred and looked great. After the parade Noah waited patiently as 4 cousins tried to "share" their suckers with him. It was very sticky, but very cute. Finally the weekend culiminated with Josh rescuing my flip flops. They had ended up on the roof during the previously mentioned bags night. My cousin Deewee and I were locked in a battle royale on the bags field (aka the driveway, with a couch there for spectators, very white trash). I was caught up in the moment and threw my shoes at him, he proceeded to throw them on the roof. Fortunately my tall brother used a ladder and some golf clubs the next day and came to the rescue. Thanks Josh! Hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable 4th!
