24th of July festivities

Because the 24th was on Sunday this year we kept it pretty low key. The Smith Clan, minus a few, gathered at Rosemarie and Patti's for a BBQ. It was fun to be together even though there were quite a few missing.

Rachel, Cameron and Jack came to our house before we went over, Jack seemed bored! Not really he just hadn't had much of a nap.
Rosemarie and Jessica setting things out.
I was shocked to see Spencer load up his plate like this but he ate it all plus more fruit, he is certainly on a growth spurt, his parents are in trouble when he's a teenager!
Dave and Olivia, getting things ready for Tanner.
Between bites I was able to get Tanner and his big blue eyes to at least look at me.
Jack is learning to reach for things, it won't be long before Rachel can't sit with him on her lap and eat in peace.
Caleb and the silly smile.
Love these little grins!
Jessica and Rosemarie
Emma lovin the ice cream.
But not lovin the cold!
The cute Smith sisters Megan, Nichole, and Lindsey.
The newest version of "The Cousins Clud?" Nahhh.
Cousins playing together while the big boys play football.
Those silly little grins!
Olivia and Dave all tuckered out.
It was fun to be together and visit for awhile. Life is so crazy it is hard to get together, I miss seeing all of my nieces and nephews more often but you do what you have to. I was also hard not having Cyd, Ken, Nora, and Clara with us and most especially Kerry. Soon, very soon!
Thanks to Rosemarie and Patti for having us to dinner and letting us play together.
