"MELT LIKE A POPSICLE ON THE FORF OF JULY"


We had some visitors for the 4th this year. Brad's parents came down for the entire holiday weekend. Which was tons of fun - lots of games and way way way too much good food. We taught them how to play Settlers of Catan and Diane's inner land grabber came out in full force. I think they really enjoyed playing. Of course my (not so) inner competitiveness came out as I lost three miserable games in a row. That game is so agonizing when you can't build anything! If you've never played sorry for the shop talk but also - shame on you. Go and learn now.

Anyway I digress - the one time it wasn't a billion degrees or raining we managed to go fishing at a nearby pond. We all caught something but they were tiny so we didn't keep anything. We didn't even keep Ross's biggest catch of the day. A ten pound snapping turtle! I'm so glad Brad didn't get any fingers snapped off trying to unhook him. Those bad boys should be insured at this point!
