And the festivities continue...

Saturday we went to the local Fourth of July parade and started the day off right...donuts!!!



In an effort to not follow up the parade with a trip to the ER due to heat stroke, we arrived super early to get a spot in the shade.


Getting there an hour and a half early meant the girls had to come up with their own entertainment before the parade started. I can't think of a better way than watching ice melt on the scorching sidewalk.




Or tormenting a worm with sticks. Despite their best efforts, the poor worm never did hurdle that stick.


Finally the parade began! First in line was Nolan Ryan...icon of the All-American Pastime.Immediately followed by the other great All-American pastime of wearing sombreros. Or something...


They loved waving those flags!

I wonder what has her so bewildered??
Oh.
I loved this one! Cracks me up...

Happy Fourth of July!!

Allie looks SOO grown up to me. More so than Avery even. How tall is she? Avery is a runt.
