Birthday and Independence Day Celebration

 
 
 
It's kind of a puzzle effort to get this blog done but it's a labor of love.  July 4th and 7th were both fantastic days.  The 4th turned out to be a family get together.  Both my children and most of my grand children and two great grand children were here with spouse and significant others.  One of Ron's brothers decided to forgo another family get together and him and his wife joined us for the weekend. 
I did all my part of the cooking on Friday so I could enjoy the 4th with everyone.  My son and his girl stayed till after 10 pm watching the neighborhood fireworks.  Believe me they matched anything a village put on with beautiful aerials.  Lots of oohs and ahhs.   
My birthday was very special.  A beautiful bouquet of white and red roses from my husband were sitting on the table when I came downstairs.  While I was eating breakfast my son stopped on his way home from work with two dozen red roses.  What a surprise.  I still got some birthday cards in the mail and lots of internet wishes.  Sure did feel special.  We even tried out a new steak house for dinner.  Jamenson's Chop House in Darien.  I'd definitely go back.
