Family on the Fourth

We enjoyed a comfortable Fourth of July in the backyard with family.


Folks spread out between the patio

And the shade of the trees.

There were several croquet matches.

Here’s a couple teams taking a break in the air conditioning to cool off.

There were lots of finger foods to keep us snacking through the afternoon. Then, Ken did brats on the grill for supper.

…and my brother Bobby and his wife Judy brought fresh sweet corn from the farm, which was a hit with all, especially great-nephew Brian.

As the twilight descended, the crowd dwindled as many headed off to see the riverside band concert and fireworks.
