Celebrating July 4th at the Jumping J Ranch

For the last several years we have all gone out to Aunt Sue & Uncle Jack's land (the "Jumping J Ranch") for an old fashion 4th of July celebration. This year was a special treat because Brylie came with us!! Aunt Sue & Nana had a ton of activities for the kids. We had a huge BBQ lunch right after we got there. Then it was time for homemade ice cream (yum). We played games, rode horses, had tracker rides and the kids put on a karaoke show for us. We winded down the 4th with the guys' annual sporting clay competition (I actually participated this year), making smores and watching Lance's fireworks show. Lance was a bit bummed because there was a burn ban in effect so he couldn't shoot off any of the super fun fireworks, but we all enjoyed it just the same.

Kathy & I (also know as the "Jumping J Paparazzi") both had our camera out taking pictures most of the time. I think together we snapped close to 1,000 pictures! Here are a few highlights from the ones I was able to capture...


We had an absolute BLAST!! Thank you so much Nana, Paw Paw, Aunt Sue & Uncle Jack for having us out and making the weekend so much fun!!
