4th of July





The 4th of July was never a big to-do when I was growing up. When I met Ben and was invited to the big Fast bash I had no idea what I was in for. I had been to parties with fireworks and seen bottle rockets and what not. The extravaganza I witnessed was new to me. Lots of people, great BBQ and ice cream, and every kind of firework, legal and illegal you could imagine. I soon realized 4th of July is comparative to Christmas in this family. As the years have gone by the party has mellowed out as all the young ones that caused the chaos have moved away but it is still a great night of friends and family. The guys still find ways to entertain..... pool games and canons just to name a couple.
