Well our "firery" fourth was lots of fun until the fire turned out to be fire ants rather than fireworks!! We had a great BBQ and swimming party at our complex with lots of great friends. We were just wrapping it up when I heard some screaming. I ran over to the grass to see what it was about and found Conner and Jace covered with tiny fire ants. They were just standing there with these little ants all over the legs. I immediately started brushing them off with my hands and screaming for Kevin. When he came around the corner he was relieved to see it was just ants!! He grabbed both of them by the arm and we got them away and stripped them naked in just a few seconds. Then one of our friends grabbed the hose and we gave the boys a good spray down. Don't forget that all of our friends watched the whole event. I guess it's just not a Keys' party without naked two year olds!!I felt bad for the boys but they actually haven't seemed to mind it much. THey are soo tough!!

Oh, how sad for them! I hate those stupid ants...we've been bit several times, myself included.
Those darn bugs, I agree with Tara....they're stupid. I still have scars from being bit like 3 months ago. Your boys I am positive are much tougher than me.
Fire Ants are one of the down fall of living in Texas ;) They really are everywhere and you always seem to find them a just the right time!
