Happy 4th of July!!!!

The 4th of July is pretty special time for our family. First of all we get to spend it with Aunt Cathey and Uncle Doyl. They live in Palm Desert for part of the year so we don't see them until summer. We all look forward to spending time with both of them. The boys look up to Uncle Doyl and can't wait to see and spend time with him and they love their Aunt Cathey.
The whole Spee-bi-dah Beach Community comes together and has activities for the whole family. There is a rummage sale, country store, kids raffle, adult raffle, book sale, Bite of Spee-bi-dah, Strawberry Social, a special quilt is handmade by the women of Spee-bi-dah and is raffled off every year, a dance is held in the evening with a live band (the guys are from the community and play every year), a cake walk, bouncy toy and games for the kids, a sand castle contest, pancake breakfast, and a parade. It's very special there. I feel blessed that our family has gotten to take part in this special tradition with Cathey and Doyl. The 4th at Spee-bi-dah has given our family wonderful memories that will last a lifetime!!!
