We all went to Melissa and Brucess house at 5.  Bruce cooked great food on the grill and also made potato salad, macaroni salad, no bake cookies, watermelon and cut veggies.  Rody brought his yummy banana pudding too.  I made three kinds of cookies.  Melissa loved the turtle cookies.  That made me happy.  We all ate good and had fun visiting.  The kids played very good together.  Everyone was excited when Bruce did his fireworks.  So much fun watching the kids.  Thank you Bruce and Melissa for such a fun day and the great food.

Hoed the garden and some flower beds.  Did some packing in the camper.  Met Melissa, Bruce and family, Vikki, Rody and family, and Debbie, Tom and Matthew in Frankenmuth for the fireworks.  We sat down by the river being T Dubbs.  It was beautiful and very peaceful. The boys loved playing by the big trees and the river. We ordered pizza from T Dubbs and ate it while we were waiting.  It was delicious.  Had fun visiting and watching the kids play while waiting for the fireworks to start.  Debbie walked with the girls to get ice cream cones and treated them.  The fireworks were nice and we got right out of town quickly with not a hole lot of traffic.  Very nice except missed Kimmy and her family tons.
