July 3rd we had our annual Fourth of July party at our house. Every year our party is growing and this year was no different. Because we were also celebrating Helm Electric's 10th Anniversary, we had lots and lots of people out this year, over 200!!! Big party, but so much fun. We also enjoyed having so many of our out of town/state family join us this year. I hope you can all join us again next year.
We had all the food setup in the shed this year. Huge difference not having that many people in the house! Much cleaner and more enjoyable to go inside after everyone had left. And I don't think anyone minded having the food sitting out. Must not, it was almost all gone this year!!
After eating, we had Helm Electric trivia and handed out gift cards to Jim's Chicken. That was fun, but some of the questions were a little hard, even for me.
Along with the food and trivia, we also had our hay rack ride going. The trailer was never empty. Actually, I don't know how they managed to get the amount of people on the trailer that they did, it looked pretty amazing seeing all those people up there and having fun. We also made a barrel train for the little kids this year. Also a big hit and a lot of fun. And then the toys, bikes, horseshoes, ladder ball, and just sitting around and visiting, and t-shirts, can't forget the t-shirts (I have a ton left over, please let me know if you would like more). Another successful year. The big hit of the night, of course, the fireworks!!! The guys did an amazing job putting on a spectacular show!
Thanks to everyone who joined us and celebrated Helm Electric's 10th year in business and also celebrating our wonderful freedom. With out the sacrifices of our soldiers, their families, and our forefathers, none of this would even be possible. THANK YOU!!
Love, Amy
