Getting Ready for the Fourth

It was pretty warm this morning by the time John and I finally woke up, so we wimped out of our walk.  We got cleaned up, ate breakfast, and then headed down to the shop to do some more cleaning and sorting.  We have one section of the building just about done--should be able to complete it over the weekend.

John did some more work in the shop finishing up the project he started the other day.  While he was busy there, I made a pasta salad, dip, and brownies for tomorrow.  I am also making strawberry pies, but I can do them first thing in the morning.  

This evening we went up to Matt's for supper with the family and then we all drove over to the next town and went to the movies.  Everyone seemed to enjoy Despicable Me 2 as there was much laughter throughout the movie.  After we returned to Matt's place, the guys put on their annual fireworks show in the backyard.  Since Sara and her kids are leaving after lunch tomorrow to spend a couple of days with her brother who is visiting from Alaska, the show was held tonight so they could enjoy it along with the rest of us.  The guys did their usual great job.
