4th of July Gathering

On the evening of July 4th we all gathered at Janet (Nicole's mom) and Kirk's house for Navajo Tacos, which have become quite the tradition at family dinners. We had just under 100 show up. The yard was full..what a great sight to see. We also provided pinatas for the kids, which have also become a tradition. Many of them had been asking their parents all week when they would get to hit the pinatas. Of course we blindfolded the older kids to make it more difficult for them. Mike also moved the pinatas around to make it harder. We only have a few mishaps that evening, which is amazing considering all the kids running around. All in all, it was a fun evening.
