Yankee Doodle Dandy

Celebrating America's birthday with the Walshes, the Marshes-from-two-blocks-away, the Dixons (Pete's sister Jen, her hubby Rob and cousin Travis) from Oregon and the Reeds (Pete's Uncle John and Aunt Barbara plus their granddaughter Nyla) from Dyersburg, TN. Two days prior, it was Matt's b-day, so he got an American flag cake and two pretty little girls to share his lap. A cookout, a little swimmin' in the kiddie pool, fireworks--which we can legally enjoy since we live in the county!
