The first sounds of the parade made Lily cover her ears!

The girls are getting ready to get some candy.

The best looking guy in the parade......Dane Alexander.


We had a great celebration yesterday. TJ and I took the girls to the Fourth of July parade that in our city. The girls had a blast! Dane was in the parade with our school's football team. We have decided to allow him to play on the 6th grade team. Where was Tom and Tyler? Well, they were probably somewhere between the 4th and 5th hole on a local golf course!

In the afternoon, I stayed at home while the girls napped. Tom took the boys to volunteer at our county fairgrounds. They were part of the parking crew. Tom met up with us a bit later to have something to eat with our friends....Scott, Brenda and Bailey. We then went back to the fairgrounds for the fireworks. I wasn't sure what the girls would think. Last year we viewed them from a distance so it wasn't that loud. This year was different! They jumped with the first one, but settled in fine and enjoyed them.
