Fire works off the front porch 

I know....this was over a month ago, but life has been crazy this summer at Brambly Pines.  We had a great July 4th though.  Michelle and Vivi came home to help celebrate.  We had an all American dinner on the front porch because of the rain.  We needed the rain so badly, so it wasn't a bad thing.  We made our tradition of homemade peach ice cream, with us girls doing all of the turning.  Chuck has three compressed disks in his back and it has slowed him down some.  As Michelle said " Ice Cream! Girl Power!!  We got her done and it tasted wonderful!!  Our fire works existed from hanging over the railing of the porch but it was still fun.  A bit smokey though.  Miss Vivienne was dressed pretty in her red/white/blue head band for her first July 4th.
