4th of July 2009


As usual, i bought everyone their 4th of July shirts. On the morning of the 4th everyone but Jorden comes to breakfast wearing their shirts. I tell Jorden to go put on his flag shirt. He laughs and says he will for the picture. I tell him i don't know if there will be a "picture" but to wear it because of the DAY!!!! He grumbles and puts it on over his shirt that he wanted to wear. Late, late in the afternoon i decide to do a family picture at the park we had been at all day. I figure we should take a family pix of our first 4th of July stateside and who knows where Jorden will be next year....Jorden still keeps his shirt on even after the "picture" A little bit later (there had been some feuding between Vicki & Rebekah against Wade, what sibblings aren't feuding?) So, soda ends up in a squirt gun, soda is shot all over Vicki's white shirt, that now has root beer spots, and she is sticky and complaining. Jorden, the nice, kind, big brother that he is....hahahahahaha...whips off his flag shirt and tells Vicki she can wear his nice clean blue one, which she does, and now Jorden is happily wearing the shirt he put on this morning!

Soda in a squirt gun? Now that's a trick I'll have to remember!
