Fourth of July

The fourth of July is the same every year....as long as we are in IF. We always start out the days festivities going to the parade. Then it is BBQ time at Grandma and Grandpa Johnson's, good food and water on the lawn for the "kids" to play in..... And last but not least it is down to the river we go for the firework show. After two summers of being away...it was so good to be home for the fourth. It is one of my favorite holidays.

Benny and the kids sitting on the curb waiting for the parade to start.

Spencer, Kaylie, Tre, Maddie and Sydney. The five oldest grand kids waiting patiently for the parade to come.

Tre playing frisbee.

Kaylie ran all over the lawn just splashing.

I didn't get any pics down at the river for the fireworks but we did do some of our own fireworks at home.

Aunt Stessy and Uncle Rico keeping Kue warm. Tre eventually fell asleep on Stephs lap, I'm not sure he was feeling well.

The kids of course did sparklers.....it's not the fourth of July unless you get sparklers and glow necklaces.

Last year Kaylie didn't know what to think about fireworks. But she loved it this year.
