The "Stinkin'" Fourth of July Weekend

The weekend was only "stinkin'" because it rained the entire weekend. Gramma said it was the first fourth of July she can remember that was totally rained out. It was also "stinkin'" because Ally couldn't find her "stinkin'" flip-flops and "stinkin'" became the word of the weekend. "They're only stinkin' when I can't find them!"

Andy, Eddie, Ben, Jim, Bekah, Debbi, Will, Jake and perhaps others I'm forgetting, worked super hard and put a new roof on the whole cabin in between rain showers. Eddie also helped reinforce the deck that most all 25 of us sat on for meals, so that was a relief! The guys did lots of other jobs around the place too.

Andy and Missy brought their boat for us all to enjoy. Holly and Eddie and their crew came to help with the roof, but ended up helping in lots of other ways too, like babysitting! Despite the rain lots was accomplished and we even got a little time to lay on the dock and do nothing in the sun. Perhaps next time it'll be warm enough to swim.
