Happy 4th of July from this cute little firecracker!!
We started off our 4th of July celebration yesterday with the local parade in Keene. This is the third year we have gone to the parade and the kids love it every time! We always get there a little early and enjoy donuts in the back of Granstan's truck!
Aubrey and Lily were so excited when they got there and they were wearing the same dress!
My Aunt Gayle came down to spend the weekend with my mom and we were glad to have her join us at the parade this year.
After breakfast, the kids got ready to watch the parade. They were most excited about gathering the candy that the floats threw their way! They loved the tractors, fire trucks, and slug bugs, but the best float of the day was the patriotic dancing llama! You just can't beat seeing a dancing llama at a small town parade!
Last night, we drove over to Emily and Jon's house for a 4th of July cookout. After dinner, we let the kids do some sparklers and small firecrackers.
Today was a low key day. Cory was off of work which is always nice. We celebrated Granna's birthday with swimming, another cookout, and a patriotic birthday cake! We are so thankful for my mom and all she does for our family and I hope she felt loved on her special day!
We had a great 4th of July spending lots of time with our family and cousins! It just doesn't get better than that!
