Happy 4th of July!

Yesterday we had a very wonderful 4th of July. We started out by going to the parade, which the boys loved, but it was so hot.
We went with a lot of friends. The Pirotta's were the troopers and went early to save us a seat. We showed up about 20 minutes before the parade along with the Mitchell's, Thayn's, and the Ostrom's.

The kids colored the road with sidewalk chalk until the parade started and all the adults just visited.

When the parade started the kids lined the curb and we had a nice time.

I felt so bad for the boys, both of their faces were bright red, but they were having loads of fun. Lincoln clapped and cheered for every single float that went by.

Then we went to see the movie WALL-E which I didn't think was all that great, but Braden and Barry liked it. Lincoln got pretty wiggly about half way through but what can you expect from Lincoln...he's got a short attention span! Anyway, after that we went home and took naps, then went to Robin and Netta's (my in-law's) for a BBQ. We went to the park not far from their home and played Frisbee...I just watched the boys play on the playground. Then we went to see the fireworks that they shoot off at the mall. We had a nice time and by the end of the day we were all sweaty and dirty and ready for baths and bed.
