July 4th

Eek! Independence Day has come and gone and I didn't get to record it here!  Ok, here goes nothing.

First, PDG says Happy 4th!

He somewhat accidentally found himself being pushed through his first parade that day.  We thought we'd just be watching the Barcroft neighborhood shindig, but suddenly were swept up in the movement as he drifted asleep in the stroller.

Luckily he had an uncle he'd just met to keep him entertained when he did wake up to check out the festivities.

As part of the celebration we also had fireworks!  J-Man, who had never bought fireworks before, was lured in by the buy one get one free "deal" and bought way too many.  We probably have enough for next year too.

The best were the little strobe lights, where the boys of all ages could dance without abandon.

I love fireworks.  And parades.  And silly times with any and all of my boys
