It is all about tradition!
For years my family has spent the 4th of July on the beach. I found some old photos that brought back memories. We'd have matching tee shirts or hats, and lots of fun. Flying kites on the beach, the mullet toss, and fireworks. Like everything else, it gets harder as the kids get older and spread their wings. getting together is not as easy when we are spread all over.
The year Bill and I married we had the whole family down for the 4th. Yours, mine, and ours. This is the McMichael clan.
This year we are having our big party on the 5th... and have insisted on a 'Declaration of Attendance'. We hope to have a fun crowd. Of course we will have our pots of potatoes, corn, sausages, and shrimp... and lots of napkins.
Y'all enjoy your 4th!

Looks like your family really does know how to celebrate! Our two-country family goes on all week, starting with Canada Day on July 1.
Happy July Fourth! Love those matching shirts!
Fun! Hubby's family used to have us wear matching shirts for a family photo as well!

Hey, Sandi! Thanks so much for inviting us to your low country boil this year! We are excited and can't wait. I'm bringing my coconut cake.

Brenda~ It is a 'declaration of attendance' because I need to know how much shrimp to get.
