We had a great 4th of July yesterday. A day packed with fun! We started the day by heading to the Carmel Fest Parade with Gam and Papaw. We got rained out toward the end, but Jake loved the parade. Papaw taught him to yell, "candy! candy!" as the parade passed by. The little panhandler ended up with a pretty good stash of candy! My favorite part of the parade were the guys on the riding lawnmowers. I'd never seen riding lawnmowers in a parade and these kids were poppin' wheelies! It was great. After the parade we headed to our house for a good old fashioned cookout. Uncle Andy, Aunt Jenni and the girls joined us. We just relaxed, ate and watched Wimbledon. Later that evening we headed over to our friends for another cookout and more relaxing fun. The kids on their cul-de-sac had a parade and Jake got to participate. We wrapped up the day by watching the fireworks. What a great day!
