4th of July

Nate decided to do yard work instead of going to the parade.


Almost parade time! My brothers slept out on University Ave. to get a good spot for everyone. Since they already had the spot and all I had to do was show up, I decided to go hang with them. Parades aren't always my favorite, but the kids love them, and I love my kids.


Trying to get a picture of all of my kids in their red, white, and blue. 



Jude and Maggie are good friends.


My cute sister-in-law and her cute girls.


I won these awards at Army.




Gray!


There were a lot of boys in the flag tossers this year. I liked it.


Dees is fer the Newsies!


The Little Mermaid!


Waving to the princesses!


 Pipe band! My favorite!


It's like half a dozen Lil Sebastians!


More princesses!





Kung Fu Panda!


Colin!




Missionaries!


I deleted all the other marching band pictures. But rest assured, there were marching bands.


Princesses!


This was just a cool float.




After the parade we met up with Brad and DeAnna and kids and went for a cubscout hike so Donovan could get his Wolf award.



We also did the lame fireworks kids like at Granny's house.


And had a water balloon war.


The big boys got in on it, too.




Then we had a cousin sleepover, and I got the short end of the stick because I traded my one girl for 3 extra boys.


I took the big boys to a neighbor's house to watch the cool aerial fireworks, and they did not appreciate them.
