Quatro De Julio

Posted on 04. Jul, 2009 by Derrick in Night life, Random Events

The tour of mothers continues this week with my mother from Germany in town. She flew in on Friday and has spent a lot of time with us kids.

We started of our 4th of July festivities with cruising on over to the Franz’s house for their annual Quatro De Julio party. These parties tend to have a lot of drinking, good food, good company and the occasional cougar on the prowl. Last year it was in the 90′s and people were scrambling for cover from the sun. This year were were scrambling for cover from the rain. It pored on us during the party from about 3:30-4:30.

As always they have loads of booze, but who can resist jello shots

As always Summer when she has a bit to drink she breaks out the lazy eye….

The rain never fazed my mom. She hung tough!

Since we had planed on going back to Kit and Annika’s place for additional food cooking and consumption. We bailed early and headed back to thier house to prepare the feast. Annika and I were on kabob duty while the rest of the gang made due with playing wii bowling. My mom was a bit new to the concept and needed a few bowling lessons.

Annika and I make great sous chef’s, but only if they let us drink beer while preparing food.

Then Soren, Summer, and Annika played some Frisbee while Mom, Kit and I manned the grill (Mom and I were just moral support for Kit)

Summer decided to try and start a ruckus with me. I don’t know why she does that when I’m twice her size.

After grubbing for about an hour and stuffing our faces with all the amazing food. We made our way out to our fireworks watching destination. To pass the time we played a little more Frisbee but this time we turned on the LED’s on it and watched it glow.

We finished the eventful day with celebrating the 4th with FIREWORKS!
