Let's Be Independent Together

Independence Day means a trip to Tulsa to see Granny and the old cousins.  It also means brownies, deviled eggs, smoked ham and Granny's famous baked beans! Jon's brother Bobby and both of the boys, BJ & Jesse, all made it up. 

As usual Donnie put on a spectacular fireworks show and let the kids light and and set off some of the big ones. Got to love Oklahoma and being outside of the city limits! Plus it's always a bonus that Donnie is a retired Tulsa Firefighter should anything go wrong! 

It was good to have the Kirkwood clan together. I love how much the three boys look alike in the top picture.  There is no doubt that they are related.  I love seeing 'my kids' together.  I'm still in denial that they are all grown ups! Maybe that is part of the independence we celebrated today.   

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
    the fruit of the womb a reward. Psalm 137:3
