We spent our holiday putting up corn. We picked it up yesterday and this morning we shucked it, cleaned it, and cut most of it off the cob. Cream corn is the favorite at Mamaw's house. Granny came to help. J was pretty good at getting the shucks off and K worked on the silks. Her hot, sticky hands made the silks stick the cob but she worked hard!
After all that hard work, the kids needed a little swim.
This is the first year we have gotten fireworks. J is old enough now to help light them and he will hold sparklers. K still won't hold a sparkler but she likes to look at them.
After our little firework show, we went to Granny's yard to get a good view of the big fireworks in town. We can see them perfectly and don't have to fight the crowds and it isn't loud!
It was a nice day spent with our family.
