McKay's birthday & 4th!

McKay turned the big "18"  Yowza!!!  I can't believe what a great young man he has turned out to be!!  Poor kid being born on a holiday doesn't get to do much.  We had to clean the church early that morning & that made him cranky but he was a good sport about it.   Later that day we got to sign a firework for Kurt & then he was in the Youth for America program which was really good.  So glad that McKay is in our family & sorry he is born on a holiday but that's how it goes sometimes :)  But we sure love this kid!!


The Beaufeaux family had called me the week before the 4th to ask if we would like to sign a fireworks for Kurt.  I was so very touched that they would think of us.  It turned out that Alyssa & Cache were coming for the 4th anyway.  So they were in Show Low & came out to sign the firework.  It was a great tribute to him & was a great experience for our family.

My boys were in the Youth for America program on the night of the 4th.  It was a great program that these kids have been practicing forever on.  Barr had a speaking part & McKay had a singing part with 5 other people that was really good.  The songs were really good.  Heck the whole program was great!!  My boys were such good sports & went every Sunday for the last few months to practice.  Good job guys I'm proud of you :)

This is the fireworks that was shot in Kurt's honor!!  It was a very emotional night to see that in the sky.  I know that Alyssa & Cache will be with there son again one day & will be able to raise him.  I love my little grandson & can't wait to meet him someday :)
