We enjoyed camping out on Great Grandpa Liddell's lawn and watching the 4th of July parade. Our kids look forward to this tradition every year. It is also a great time to get together and celebrate Great Grandpa's birthday. (How old is he now? j/k) After enjoying a celebratory lunch together the Joe Liddell family reconvened at our house. (At least those within 200 miles.) The kids enjoyed running through the sprinklers while the adults relaxed. We also tried out a new tamale recipe and had a Mexican feast. It went over well, although with some adjustments they will be even better next time. We finished off the holiday by watching fireworks with some friends. It was a busy but fun 4th!
