Happy Independence Day Everyone!

Happy Fourth of July! Hope everyone is having a wonderful day and enjoying the American spirit shining through wherever you are at! We are planning to go to Lake CDA after I get off work and watch the fireworks tonight, I'll try to post a few pics in the next few days. Jacqui just got home from Disneyland yesterday, so we have some stories to work on for the blog.
One thing in particular that I thought was fun and definitely to be shared is that she is now telling people (random people in California from what my mom tells me) that she has a couple grandads. But she specifies to random strangers that 'I only have 1 that is Grandad #3 (yes he is still demoted), and (here is the great part) his name is Benjamin Elward (heavy emphasis on the ElWARD)... We sometimes just call him Elward because that is what my Grandma Dixie calls him. H is my #3 Grandad, but MY Grandma Dixie calls him Benjamin Elward when he is in trouble". I loved it! I was laughing so hard when Jacqui and my mom told me the story. So Grandad Elward you now have a new name and are infamous across the western coast for having Grandma Dixie keep you in line by using ALL your names! Kids are great!
Hope you all have a safe and happy 4th and enjoy our independence, that so many have given up so much for... We love our veterans and we love our country and are so proud to be Americans! God Bless everyone for the 4th this year...
