Belated Independence Day...

Ok, so I know that the 4th of July has come and gone (which by the way is CRAZY!), but here is what the Brannin family did for the weekend. It was a crazy busy weekend leading up to the 4th. We hosted a BBQ themed Pampered Chef party that was a lot of fun. We had friends and family over and had wonderful food to eat. I will be sharing the 20 min rib recipe on my recipe page soon. We attended two birthday parities. One for baby Kylee, who turned 1, and one for Cameron and Jessica who turned 30! Wow! Where does the time go? Spending the day at the river was next on the list of things to cram into the weekend before finally the 4th arrived. It was a relatively relaxing day that we spent eating delicious food with my parents. We did not even light off fireworks. This is the second year in a row that we did not watch or light off fireworks. It use to be such a big holiday with my family, huge bbq at my grandparents with tons of family, friends, and volleyball. Then it morphed into spending the day on Hicks lake, boating, eating, and watching fireworks with friends. Now, it's pretty mellow. I am looking forward to starting our family 4th of July tradition that is spectacular. Just need to formulate a plan... It will definitely include family, friends, food, and fireworks.
