a bit of Independence Day goodness . . .

leaving for the parade that was postponed until after the rain (yes, a haircut is in order soon, a dye job too if anyone wants to scholarship one for me! ha!)

N3 practicing high kicks ;) while Miss Squish snoozes

and still snoozing as the parade approaches. Check out the puddles from Independance Day downpour!

at the park for the festivities having a quick sip of water from her favorite honey bear and cotton candy for N3! I Swear we had brisket burritos and nectarines first! and without further ado . . . . .the sparklers!!!!
