fourth of july festivities

I had so much fun this Fourth of July holiday! For breakfast, Danny made me a patriotic smoothie -- note the strawberry garnish. Thanks, Danny. :) Following breakfast, we headed over to the Dukes to spend time with his family and visiting cousins. Danny went golfing with the guys while I went swimming with the rest of the gang! They had lots of different contests going on at the pool including a drop-lots-of-coins-at-the-bottom-of-the-pool-and-see-how-many-you-can-get contest. 


Once regrouped at the Dukes, we had a BBQ. Danny made two apple pies for it. :) It was perfectly crumbly, sweet and delicious!


Following dinner, we all headed out to Rio Tinto for the RSL game! Check out that little girl's cute patriotic dress!


After the game everyone was invited to run out onto the field while the stadium put on a fireworks show for the fans. It was pretty cool. And because the only thing that can make good days better is ice-cream, we stopped at Sonic on the way home. :)
