Today we had a family fun day. We started it off by cooking a rotisserie chicken. Andrew loves them from Walmart, so I bought a rotisserie cooker and we tried it out. It took us forever to prepare the chicken. We didn't know how to tie its legs, so we had to go online and watch a How To video. After figuring it out, it had to cook for 2 hrs. The kids were hungry and Andrew stood there and watched it go round and round forever. Lunch was ready at 12:30... When we sat down to eat Andrew insisted on eating the legs. It was a good chicken. You would have thought it was Christmas morning by the excitement in the kids voice. After lunch, we went outside and I dangled in my pool... The kids love to swim and that is all we have for now, but they have so much fun in that little thing. While we played outside it became supper time. We cooked jalapenos on the grill with cheese and bacon. The kids had sausage and corn. It was a small meal because we had ate so much for lunch. After all of the backyard fun we went to watch firecrackers. Frank had called and invited us to go with him because it rained they had postponed it to the 10th.
The Hayes' went with us to watch the fireworks. We took the kids to the park across the street and let them slide down some slides and then watched a beautiful 15 minute firework show. Mallory didn't really like the fireworks and I felt sorry for her, but the rest of the kids love them. After that we came home and went to bed. The next day we woke up and went to Elk City for the family reunion.
