freedom celebration

i look forward to this day every year!
all of my family members make a concious effort
to gather back home and be part of a busy day...
*
early morning parade
(sunscreen and munchies a must,
and dude,
wear your red white and blue)
*
delicious picnic and bbq
(assignments are diveed,
fine cowboy meats are sampled,
and tummies are full)
*
pond swimming
(you aren't part of the family till
you jump off the rocks,
oh,
and check your buns for leeches)
*
family runs
(just in case you need to work off the
fattening desserts your sisters slaved over,
don't worry,
now you get to run around the block,
or take part in a killer obstacle course)
*
river side dinner and fireworks
(get gussied up,
eat more fine foods,
listen to idaho falls symphony,
wrangle a couple of babies,
marvel in the light show set to music,
cry and feel grateful to live in america)
