Still Keeping Busy (2 of 3)

Our 4th of July celebration was tons of fun. It was a very long, HOT day, with no naps, but we survived. Aubry started in a pretty little dress perfect for the occasion. She accessorized with some adorable pig-tails.

Remember this crazy head band from last year?

Perfect.

Aubry had a front row seat for the parade on the curb (and Jennifer's lap)

We were thrilled that the Connelly's joined us for the parade!
Here are Nate, Mark, Sabrina, Avery, and Noah.

Remember them last year? Look how much they've grown!

Mia's 1st parade was spent the same way Aubry's was - tucked safely away in the carrier, sleeping. She was decked out in red, white, and blue bling.

After the parade, we ditched the cute dress and played in the pool (and mud)

Kyri was practicing to be a future contestant on The Gladiator.

Still awake, and it's firework time! We had a perfect view of the Oswego fireworks show from the backyard of Brian & Leslie. Aubry not only watched them, but pointed them out, too! She was definitely not scared of the booms, either. What a big girl.

We caught some romance in the making - Tatem & Ethan shared some popcorn while watching the show.


What a perfect end to a fun (and exhausting) day!!

Wow, can't believe you guys lasted to the fireworks after that long day of fun. We were all in bed by the time they started! Maybe next year Kyri will actually stay awake long enough to see her first fireworks (and us, too!)
