‘Merica

Katie and I have learned a thing or two about hosting, and decided that we were going to put on our ‘Merica party again this year but only bigger and better!  Last year and this year the Embassy 4th of July parties were very work oriented and not open to family members.  Between that and so many people heading out of town for the holiday we figured we’d make this our holiday (as well as Halloween of course).
4th of July 2015 style!
This year we got a lot more BBQ, more red-white-and-blue themed items, and of course a gem stoned red-white-and-blue cowboy hat that lit up!  Both years we had about 40 people show up, a fully stocked bar, and a totally trashed house and yard the next morning.  This year we at least didn’t end up at the bars with the Marines until closing time after partying all afternoon.
Everyone in their red-white-and-blue 2016 style!
The 4th of July ‘Merica party seems to have become a tradition for Katie and me so we will have to see about keeping that up once we arrive in Baku.
