We look forward to the Patriotic Pugmire Party every year. Uncle Scott and Aunt Rebecca go to all kinds of work to make a wonderful party. It has loads of good food and good people. This year we were excited to meet cousin Jen's sweet morsel of a baby! Our meal is potluck which means everyone brings whatever they wish to share but there are a few expectations. Some people get known for certain dishes, and of course you have to have homemade ice cream! The kids enjoy playing while the adults chat.

Soon as it is dark it's firework time! Uncle Scott provides all kinds of amazing fireworks. He supervises their launching and when the minions aren't doing it right he crosses the bridge to set them straight. Of course, everyone gets to participate in the sparklers!

I try to mostly get people in them. But as Mccoy said this dessert was so good,it should make the blog!" And indeed it was!) |
Looks like a wonderful family tradition.
