July 4th Fun!

We started the festivities a week before the 4th at the Taylorsville Dayzz parade. I've gone every year for as long as I can remember (I guess it hasn't been going for that long!). I don't know why I love parades. They start too early and it's usually way too hot! The nice thing about this parade is that it goes right in front of my parent's neighborhood, so that's convenient. Jeffrey had fun collecting candy and waving at everybody. He really liked the Bruin mascot driving the motorcycle. My Mom and sisters, Morgan and Madi, joined us as well. Fun, fun!

The 4th of July turned out to be a pretty relaxing day. Afternoon BBQ, icecream, and fireworks. We decided to do fireworks at home this year. Jeffrey was a little skeptical at first because it was a little windy and he was afraid the fireworks were going to blow away (that kid and the wind!), but after a few he really got into it and had a good time. And Hannah loved it. She was trying to jump out of my arms to get to them. I love my little family. Happy July!
