4th of July

Over the summer Matt's friend Len has been in Arkansas while his wife completes an internship with Walmart. Matt asked them to come over for the 4th, so Len, Lisa, and her friend Rebecca came to Memphis for the weekend.

They made a few sightseeing trips around Memphis to Graceland and midtown. Then on Saturday night, Matt and I took them downtown to see the Peabody ducks and to eat at the Rendezvous. It was really hot, but overall it was lots of fun. They got some good pictures and enjoyed the BBQ.

Then we hit Beale St. We took them to Silky O'Sullivan's for a Diver.

They liked it, but I think they liked the novelty of the bucket the most.

On Sunday, the 4th, we had lots of people over for a cookout and party. Matt (with Dan's help) smoked some butts, cooked some wings, and grilled some veggies. It was delicious, as always. Lots for friends with kids came over, so the whole family was happy and having fun.


Trent had a ball jumping in the pool with Parker Trusty.


Sarah was sweet and played with everyone's kids.


Jack loved Lisa because she pushed him on the swing.


Matt loved that he got some people to play cornhole with him.


Thomas and Andrea came and brought Abigail. It was our first time to meet her. :)

It was a wonderful Independence Day!
