We started the celebration off at the Eckhoff's with a few games of "Football Bean Bag." I stink at beanbags (as I do with most things that require physical skill and coordination) but the guys all had a great time.
Even Payton jumped in on some of the action (and knocked in a beanbag for his dad's team!)
Despite the sun hiding behind the clouds most of the afternoon, the kids all enjoyed a dip in the pool. The slide was a big hit.

Giddy-up!
Brynn eating some blueberries off of Jennie's delicious Jell-O cake - an annual tradition!
Evan was not thrilled about the "big booms" and preferred to watch the show from the big picture window inside. This photo is a bit blurry because I am leaning waaaay over the railing to snap this shot with the "night vision" setting on the camera. Big thanks to the Eckhoffs for throwing a great shin-dig! We had a blast (no pun intended.)

We heard we missed a good fireworks show in RW, but I have to say - the show we got to see in Rochester was pretty spectacular! Four of the Eckhoff's neighbors spent hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of dollars on BIG illegal fireworks, and they were awesome! Below is the view we had from the Eckhoff's deck. The show lasted over an hour!

Today we headed out to the Zimmerman's to check out their HUGE litter of lab puppies! Their yellow lab had 11 (yes - eleven!) pups. One had to be put down, but the other ten are now four weeks old and sooooo cute! No, we didn't come home with one and have no plans to, either. 
The one below is Barb's favorite. The dark yellow one is Jeremy's "pick of the litter," whom he named "Chopper." 
29 seconds of adorable puppies!

I can totally see you coming home with a lab, my friend! :) We do recommend the two dog household, although it can get insane every once in awhile! Hope you are well - great photos! Miss you!
