Fourth of July 2013

A few dollar store decorations can go a long long way....

She is ready for the neighborhood bike parade!!!


Ethan is entering a supporting role in these types of events. Gone are the days of proudly parading in your Fancy Freedom Tophat. Now he pushes the car and where's a hat in a middle-school-ironic kinda way.

And I will take it.

Because somebody is gonna need to push Anna and her tricycle all the way home. (It was DAD!)


Laney is ready to set those streamers a flyin.


Mathew has decorated and undecorated his bike multiple times.


Megan hates that flower shirt...but I think it is ADORable.

And I think she is adorABLE.


One of our first family photos!


Later we relaxed and had a bite to eat at the Taylor's BBQ. I let the kids go through the food line with minimal supervision, so mostly they ended up with a hotdog and many types of brightly frosted desserts.

Sweet Freedom!


Then we drove over to a big field on Lone Elm Rd to watch the city fireworks on the top of the van. But not before we accidentally left Mathew in the cul de sac with the neighbors and had to be alerted that we had forgotten one of our children.

Shameful.

Such a fun day.

And I am exhausted.
