We all had a wonderful time on Saturday over at our neighbors. We didn't manage to get the water slide. Cheryl told me that she was only on a waiting list for one and the company didn't call so we knew they wouldn't be bringing it. We had a slip n slide for the kids instead and water balloons. They still had a fun time..... and the best part - we saved $270! ;-)
Here's a few pics as promised.... first, my 'flag cake'. This was really easy to make, just pound cake, jello and fruit, topped with cool whip and then strawberries and blueberries on top.
We did a 'hot dog station' and made cards to place on the table letting everyone know how to assemble certain dogs. There was the Chili Cheese Dog, the Steam Whistle Dog (cheese, bacon and pickle relish), the Texas Dog (bbq sauce and coleslaw) and a Nacho Dog (cheese sauce, onions and crushed chips on top).
These are the flowers I took to our 'hosts' Cheryl & Steve...

I tried taking a few pics of the fireworks we had, and this was one of the better ones. . . .
I hope you all had as wonderful a day as we did.

Hi Denise, what a gorgeous cake & how neat to have the matching tshirt. Your 4th of July sounds awesome, I'm glad you had a great time. Have a great week, hugs
Good morning Denise, basil goes well with everything, I add it to salads, tomato salads & in any dishes, it's good with pasta too. You can make pesto pizza with your frozen pesto too. I also love basil with brie. Have a great day, hugs
