Life In Letters

J – July

It was the fourth of July when they had the team over for a BBQ and it was a nice and sunny day. They had hamburgers and hotdogs, potatoe salad, corn and for desert they had a chocolate cake. The twins were running around the backyard with sparklers. They were having a fun time spending time with their Grandpa Gibbs, Uncle McGee, Aunt Ziva, Aunt Abby, Uncle Jimmy and Uncle Ducky. The team loved the twins and would often spoil them.

The twins both had hotdogs while the others had hamburgers. When it was over Tony helped Ellie clean up and then the cake was brought out. Tony had to clean up his children's faces because they had chocolate on their faces and hands. How they had gotten messy like that he never knew. Of course they had gotten messy when they had ice cream too.

He sat there at the table watching his team interact with Ellie and the children. He was really lucky. He had a beautiful family and had a wonderful teammates. He loved the fact that his teammates would sometimes spoil his kids, but he was alright with that. They were his family. His father wasn't a good father and his Mother was dead, so his teammates were his only family. He never wanted his father near his family.

When dinner was over they had talked some more and finally it was time to go to the park to watch the fireworks. They sat down their blankets and sat down. The sky was getting darker meaning that the fireworks were about to go off. They looked up at the sky as the first firework went off.

The children oohed and awed at the fireworks as they went off. When the finale was done they each gone to their own cars and went to their own places. They would do this next year on the next Fourth Of July.
