Better late than never

Wanted to make sure I got a few more pictures from the 4th of July celebrating on here even though they're almost a week late.

It is not easy to get 11 kids seated and looking at the camera - you can see we weren't too successful. Here they are, though all 8 grandchildren and 3 cousins together for the first time.

We still use the styrofoam cup method to keep the kids from getting burned on the sparklers. It works pretty well as long as they don't try to pull the sparkler out of the cup like Mya did. In the middle is Simon sporting a cute new haircut.

A partial kids shot with Pathu right before we sang "Happy Birthday " to Pathu. Keep in mind that this picture was taken at about 10 o'clock at night after all the fireworks were gone.

Lastly, a sibling pick: Na, Nae, Nee, Bing and Noi in order by age. Yes, it does look like Nae has a halo over his head. Ironic isn't it?
