On Memorial Day we had Mrs. Elizabeth Bumpus, and our two Grandmas, Memo and Granny, over for a cookout.
Before everyone arrived, Mom, Dad, Peter John, Emory, and I jumped off our dock! Dad said Peter John and I had the biggest splashes and Emory did the funniest jumps. Since the current was moving at a tremendous speed, we had to watch so we didn't get swept down the creek.
Earlier in the day, Mom and I went to the store and fireworks shop for some Zips, smoke bombs, and the loudest firecrackers on the market. When everyone got to our house, I lit some of them in the yard and off the dock because the firecracker box said that they would still blow up under water. They did!
For dinner we had corn on the cob, cooked vegetables, and chicken. We had a lot of desserts to choose from because Memo brought cake, cookies, orange cream pops, Heath ice cream, and Oreo ice cream. I was stuffed after dinner.
