Every Year for the 4th of July my Family has gone to Lake Gaston. My Dad and Uncle Mike have always cooked a pig and some other side items. They have been doing this since I was in my moms belly some 31 years ago. I think there was one year my parents missed because my mom was expecting my brother at anytime, he was born on July 9, 1982. Then it was missed two years ago because I had just had my 1st child, Landon on June 16, 2006 and my Brother and his wife had their first child, Hannah on June 23, 2006. This year it was done a little different than we had normally done it in the past. This year we only went for the day and we had hot dogs and hamburgers instead of our usual pig. We had a great time. Especially the little ones playing in a new blow up island that was anchored out just beyond the dock. We also had a little belated birthday celebration for the 2 young kids, my cousin Allison and Cousin in law Matt; as well as celebrated the coming birthdays of my Uncle Mike and my Brother Chris. It is always fun to be able to get together with family!

Wow, you captured it all. Hard to believe Landon rode behind the boat at 2 years old! Hannah and Landon enjoyed the island just as much if not more than you ladies did - those of you sipping the recipe! The day was lots of fun but we sure had two tired little ones.
