4th of JULY

Sorry so late. With the family down and the miscarriage, definitely got postponed. Anyways, we had an awesome 4th of July. My entire family came up to our house. Justin and JC were doing a tile job for Guidance Helicopters so they were already coming. The rest of the family decided to join us. We also invited the Hepworths over for some serious FUN!! We had a pinata for the kids with way too much candy. The adults played 'catch phrase' and 'nerts.' We went to the fireworks at Embry Riddle that were great. The kids loved the fireworks. Then came back to the house, the kids fell asleep in the car, and the adults had a blast. Stayed up until 1 and played cards. Oh, and JC and I won the last game of 'nerts' so we have bragging rights. I don't think anyone dares to play us again!!!
Here are some pics...





Gavin trying his darndest to BREAK the pinata open...he knew what was inside...he helped put it in!


Madison trying...wasn't too sure, kept looking at all the adults to make sure it was okay to hit this ladybug with a bat. What a good little girl ;)


We finally had to bring in uncle Justin to do the deeds. The plastic bat just wouldn't cut it!


Here are all the kiddos. Macoy, Lexi, Gavin, Lucus, Madison, and Jalee. Makena decided to bow out on the craziness!!! And of course Jaxon and baby Lyndsey joined her ;).

Hi, I found your blog post through a search for "Nerts". It is cool to see others that know about the game. I hope you don't mind but I wanted to let you know about playnertz.com, the site for the National Nertz Association. There is a bunch of interesting Nertz information there and you can also find out how to play Nertz online there. I hope you will check it out. Feel free to join and also let your friends and family know. Thanks
