July 4th Festivities

The 4th of July weekend is always a busy one for our family. The Texas Cowboy Reunion Rodeo takes place in Stamford for 4 days beginning with a big parade. Then, we take in at least one night of the rodeo followed by a trip to Possum Kingdom Lake with my mom's family. This year we had a great time at all 3 events.
