Sampsonville: We Heart America!

It was 4th of July weekend and I did not get one picture of a firework, my Dad's humongous triple water slide, my kids cute outfits, or even the American flag for Pete's sake. I think it was because we were too busy playing! We haven't seen everyone for a while so we tried to get in anything and everything. We got to PG at 7 on Friday night and Colt went to go hang with his football buddies and it ended in an all night trip to Wyoming. Colt and Bryan came home with every firework ever made. They bought rockets for the opening of their show, but what they forgot to inform us was that one of the rocket's wings came off so they hot-glued it. Let's just say we didn't need the Stadium of Fire because we had our own little flyover that landed right in the woodpile in the backyard. I will never miss a 4th at the Sampsons, it is way too entertaining. I don't think anything will beat last year though when Westin put a bucket over his head and everyone got a free shot at him with a bottle rocket. Anyway....we had a blast watching fireworks, floating down the irrigation ditch, celebrating Mini's birthday, clogging the slide at the PG pool, and playing on the giant water slide that not any normal man would have in his backyard. We are still trying to recover. Enjoy the random pics from the weekend. There are some good ones!

Yes, that is Bryan and yes that is a metal detector. There were about 10 divots in the backyard because Colt, Nate and Bryan tried to find hidden treasures back there. Sorry for posting this Cindy! HA! She begged me not to.
