For July 4th, we all decided to go to my Mom and Dad's house and make pizza and light fireworks. It was my idea for the pizza. I have been a baker lately (it probably explains the 15 pounds I have gained). I have been baking bread and so many other things with one recipe. I learned it from a DVD called Pantry Secrets. You need to go check out the website. It is
www.Pantrysecrets.net and it is amazing!!! You can make homemade bread in less than an hour. It is Di----vine!!! Anyway....It was a lot of work, but it was fun in the end. Here are me and my Mom cooking. The pizza was really good (especially the ones I made ..... ha ha)

Anyone that knows me, knows that I am the Holiday Grinch. The Fourth of July is no exception. I do not like fireworks, but Mr. Neyra likes them so I participate. Here we all are lighting fireworks.

Alexia wanted to be right in the middle of everything. I was afraid that she was going to get burned. Luckily, Uncle Packard helped her and she got to be his "helper". She had so much fun. Last year she cried so much that I had to take her inside, but this year she loved them. She held very still and just watched as the fireworks burned. The cute little boys around her are my nephews.

My brother Terry, sister Chrisann, Gabe, and Micah.

Antonio also helped Alexia with the fireworks after he took 20,000 pictures. She tried to touch this one. You can see Antonio holding down her free hand.
