First was the firework show put on by the boys. This mainly entails the boys haphazardly lighting off every firework that Uncle Bill brought; throwing them in the air, lighting several at once, and giggling and burning each other in the process. They quickly forget the women and children are even present, as we nervously watch from the truck beds a few yards away; comforting the crying, scared kids and hoping a firework doesn't come shooting in our direction.
The casualties:
Chad's burnt shirt.
And a tiny runaway spark landed on Hailey's skirt. Although you might have thought her skirt had been ablaze with flames to hear her tell the story.
Next up was golfing.
Or in my case, cart sitting and Diet Coke sipping.
Zach posing by his best drive.
Oh how precious.
The First Annual Holbrook Fourth of July Ping Pong Tournament also took place.
Son-in-law vs. Father-in-law
Awaiting players, some willing participants, some not.
The Finals : John Steiner vs. Zach. Zach lost. Wasn't happy.
It was one intense weekend, and we were all pretty tuckered out. Just ask grandma.

What a fun trip. Did you see the famous Holbrook fireworks by the courthouse? It looks like that ping-pong tourny was pretty cut-throat, congrats to John S, I'm sure he got a sizeable trophy?
That last picture is a classic--love you, Ordene!
The picture of Grandma is priceless. Did they move the TV to the living room?
THAT picture of Ordene is the most amazing thing I have ever seen.
LOL
LOL to Zach not winning the Ping Pong tourny, he hates to lose.
