Slept in this morning, Nice fireworks, Nice food and Great company!

I am just waking up, Poppie is still sleep and snoring. He has earned his rest. We were both so tired when all left that we went to bed right away and the girls were sleep with in minutes. Poppie did a great job on the brisket, the ribs and the sirloin was lovely smoked meat, that I added au jus to for french dip, for those that chose it that way. There were lots of salads, later in the even some enjoyed the pineapple upside down cake, the only part that was pineapple was the rings, the rest was my good old zucinni pineapple, always yummy and total a surprise when I tell people, which I didn't.

I see from the door of my room that one of the dogs, has been very naughty and tore paper plates and napkins all across my kitchen floor. Work is definitely waiting for me, I have to wash the trays, and the rest of the dishes this morning, thank goodness for the new dishwasher. We ended up with 43 this year, I was glad it was about the normal number, I think with all the add ons that people requested they bring there could have been around 60, which had seemed over whelming, so I was glad it was around 45 whew.... I do enjoy all the company but have to rest up so it takes a whole year to have the energy to have it again. 

The pools was full of little people, one die hard was Belle's little boy, the other joined him but none of them stayed in as long as he did. Since some of the kids didn't bring suits we had to look through the laundry and some of the combinations we came up with were so funny, but they served the purpose, getting to go in the pool.  Buga, thank goodness, was still little enough to ware the onesy I found. Thank goodness as well for her, panies underneath. 

The fireworks were the best we have had, they lasted a long time and were very pretty, the little ones were totally enthralled. I like the purple ones and the ones that go up and explode in very big plooms. Sister, had a spell and passed out, scared some of the guests.  Brother in law, stopped lighting the fireworks, we revived her with ice and helped her to lay in her car.  DC was so worried and kind of thought we were callous, but it is something that happens and the routines work to help her. She gets to go to the specialist on Thursday.  DC was sure we needed to take her to the ER, but the reality is they couldn't do anything for her.  We are hoping they fix, the reopened hole in heart soon.  One of the neighbors, Teenager's mom, is a hospital tech, not sure  her exact position and she is newly graduating into a new degree, said the second surgery always fixes the problem.  I hope it is soon.

Well the kitchen floor is wait and we need to make coffee, I am hibernating until noon, for sure, after the dishes, then working on photos for the Internet and getting my stores full of listing of all the inventory I have in my studio.  I can't wait to finish in the studio and carve, I haven't gotten to for awhile. Life is good, nothing on my list that I have to do... no parties, no shows, no nothing, summer time here we come, camping next month, fire wood to get and all the fun of summer is waiting.... tomorrow.
