Day 8 - Fourth of July in Joliet Montana

7/6/2015

We spent our 2015 Fourth of July with some of Kathy's family in Joliet (pronounced Jolly-ette) Montana. Her Aunt and Uncle also joined us from Michigan and they drove their yellow Transformers Camaro.

We spent most of the day relaxing and enjoying the warm Montana weather (90+ degrees with some humidity) with a good 'ol fashioned BBQ and watermelon and cookies for dessert.

Later in the afternoon, we drove over to the local fireworks booth and bought everything we could possibly fit into the Jeep. After loading up on fireworks, we moved over to the road side ice cream shop for more treats and Kathy modeling herself by the Jeep.

Our little Mouse, who in these parts has been referred to more often as "Cowboy" as he loves to wear cowboy boots and shorts everywhere he goes, including for ice cream...was spotted behind this cobbled together antique car.

Later in the evening, at around 9:30PM, is when the sun really set. At this time, we started up a campfire on the farm, roasted marshmallows and made s'mores which was followed by our fireworks celebreation. We all had a great time, especially me as I loved setting off all of the fireworks. Everything ended around midnight, which is the latest the kids have ever been up (yikes!), but I have to say that everyone had a great time being together and celebrating.

Here are a couple pictures from our Fourth of July celebration.
