July 4th at Lowfields

The 4^th of July is not just a summer holiday at Lowfields, but a holiday comparable to Christmas & Thanksgiving.  This is because not only celebrate our nation’s independence but the birthdays of Sister and her son, Michael. 

This particular 4^th was especially special because for the first time we had my mother, CoCo and the new baby of the family, Nutmeg & Michael’s son, William aka Cutty, who is 7 months old.  Sister will now sometimes also be known as Whimsey - her grandmother name, and  Charlie & I are now christened as Uncle Angus and Picnic Aunt!  


We spent a lot of time outside in the pool or quilt-rolling under the trees by the James River.  We barely stayed awake to see the fireworks in surrounding towns…
