Happy 4th of July!!

Starting to slack already....it's been 15 days since the last post. I wanted to try for once a week but oh well. I've been pretty busy with school lately. If I can just make it to Aug 4th....then I will have a break until Aug 28th.

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! Below is a picture of Landon and his cousins Jaden and Jarrett on the way to watch fireworks.

We went to Henagar to watch fireworks from the potato festival. I tried to adjust my camera to get some pictures of the fireworks. I got a few neat looking ones. You might not can see it very well but here's one below.

We had a cookout here at our house for my family. I will have to post some pictures later because all the ones I took were not good...I forgot to change the settings on the camera back to normal after taking pictures of the fireworks.

Gone fishin'

Landon's first fishing experience!

He really enjoyed holding the fishing rod. He had one his size, however he didn't like it as much as the "real" fishing rod. He kept pointing at the water and saying "fish". Aunt Sheila caught a good size catfish. Papa Tommy caught a baby fish of some kind. Landon and I mostly had a few nibbles...however we did get a BIG catfish on the line. (He jumped up out of the water...we had witnesses!!) Landon was holding the rod when the floater went under. Unfortunately, Landon didn't understand that I had to take the rod to reel it in. Needless to say, if you look at the picture below....the fish got away! :-(

Oh, well....maybe next time!
