Photo Monday 4th of July

For me celebrating holidays includes a gathering of the clan. There is always someone who can't make it but always enough of us to be a crowd.

Here are some of this year's photos.

Top - BBQ
Middle - The bunny joins her people in the jacuzzi
Bottom - playing some sort of water volley ball.

    Great memories of family fun times.
Indeed. We have been doing this since my kids were the ages of the grands, actually since I was that age when I lived with my grandparents. It makes me so happy that they continue the tradition and enjoy each other.

Lets say bunny learned to tolerate the pool but I doubt she would venture in on her own. She is loose in the back yard (the world's largest rabbit cage) so the pool thing all started with making sure she could swim and get out should she fall in when no one was there - same as we did with the dogs.

very true. In the end it is family is the one connection that endures - at least usually. In my case we are culturally family oriented so will not allow the ties to be broken no matter what.

Add to that 2 more days of activities with some of my daughter's friends and a beach day and it was almost an entire week of go go go. He probably needed the sugar to get through it. This morning he did not want to get up or eat - very unusual for hm but I am sure he will be back to normal by tomorrow.
