Fifth of July
Wasn't quite sure what the weather was going to do. We planned a cook out and a few fireworks. Turned out pretty nice all day.
Mom & Dad came over so we had to bring out the Pichenotte board. Dad was in his element, I think he let the whippersnappers win one game.
Via Wikipedia, Pichenotte (PĒSH-nut) refers to a family of several disk-flicking games, mostly French Canadian in origin, including crokinole, and carrom. Pichenotte is a Canadian French word meaning 'flick', which is derived from the European French word pichenette (PĒSH-net), also meaning 'flick'.
Jarrod brought over a cooler of meat for the BarBQue. So we cooked up some chicken, sausage, pork, and steaks, corn bread & Potato and Macaroni salad. Rose and the boys did the baking, Jason made cornbread and James made Cheesecake, everything was great!
James was lighting Roman candles leaning them away from everyone stuck in a cinder block with another block leaned against it so it doesn't change position. One decided to blow out the side of the tube and exploded all 5 balls at once right there at the block, everyone is fine, and that kids is why you don't hand hold fireworks EVER!
Mom & Dad left before the main fireworks event, surprisingly as we'd been lighting off small fireworks, crackers, and jumping jacks out comes on deer, then a second appeared 10 minutes after Mom & Dad left.
July 6th, Oh and we have a fawn that doesn't listen to Mom and stay down in the grass and be quiet. This is a hungry little fawn and comes out in the morning daylight to grab a snack.
Stay Safe!
