Independence Day Family Get-Together

We had an awesome family get-together today! I love it when all the cousins, aunts and uncles get together to spend time and hang out. Bamaw had a great idea to put two slip-n-slides end to end and the kids LOVED it! Austin made a now-famous layered trifle, Mitchell is becoming a serious grill master and grilled a bunch of chicken legs, hot dogs and an amazing pork loin. I broiled some delicious pineapple with a butter/brown sugar/cinnamon glaze. Ah-mazing! Liz's sister, Rebekah, was in town visiting them and came over to hang out too. It was fun to catch up with her and hear about her recent trip to Houston and San Antonio with Isaac and Katelyn. Such a fun family day!

 Hahaha, I thought this was hilarious!

 Uncle Austin made two of these!

 This was seriously good pork! So moist!

This is seriously so good, oh my word!

 Catch it!

 Liz and Austin took their youngest kids home to pack and get ready for their early morning departure to Washington tomorrow. We persuaded them to leave Isaac behind while the rest of the adults played the card game "Oh Heck." 

 Baby Makenzie! Mitchell is especially smitten. She's so calm.

Sweet smiles!
