4th of July Parade

Once again, the boys and Rod slept out at the Parade route to save our beloved spot! Thanks to Dave and Chandler for securing it and thanks to Rod and the boys for sacrificing comfort for our great parade spot!!! Even though it is quite early, the kids were all in great moods!! The parade is one of our favorite activities each year!!
Even the older boys like it.

Wesley was actually awake for some of the parade!

Braden loves the parade because he gets to wear his goofy soda drinking hat!

The boys loved the fire trucks.

The little girls love the parade.

They even caught the big boys attention.

Lots of firetrucks!!!

And who should we see after the fire trucks.....

Smoky the Bear!!

The motorcycle highway patrol where cool!!

Meagan loves the parade! What a cute girl!

Jayden and Parker really loved waving their flags.



This was one of our favorite floats. How to Train a Dragon.

What's a parade without our favorite Cougar... Cosmo?
Meagan with her Uncle Dave.

Did we come to watch the parade or play cards????

Still awake??? Just barely!


The "Tail end of the Parade!!!!
Just wanted to let Shauna know what she was missing!! Who would choose Hawaii over all of this?!?!

I was really enjoying the pictures, I am so glad you took so many and it made me really miss the event. THEN I got to the last picture and laughed out loud. Thanks for showing everyone my daughters crack. Of course that happens quite a bit, thanks for documenting it. You don't know how many pictures I have exactly like that. LOVE YA and miss ya. We still need to do lunch. Maybe for your birthday and mine combined?

I love the whole "Tail End". Who hasn't seen that little bum. LOL. My favorite bum story for Meg is after going camping she had mosquito bites all over her bum. And you being a witness could easily guess why.
