pops in the park and fireworks

Caleb got a little too carried away with his juice on the drive over. But we made it to our nice shady spot that Howie staked out much earlier that morning.

Ains and Abby had a blast with these "goggles". Poor Alice had to repair them about 500 times before the night was over.

Howie got some snuggles in with Miss Reagan - Caleb was jealous.

Silly girlie...

Caleb and his juice - at least this time it went IN his mouth.

Momma and her wild man.

The girls were starting to get a little impatient.

But finally, we had fireworks!! A slightly obstructed view, but perfect nonetheless.

Thanks Alice and Howie for a fun night! Next time let's go to Pops in the Park sans little ones and really enjoy ourselves!

july 4th parade

All decked out and ready to roll...

Waiting on the firetrucks to arrive so that the parade could begin.

Such a cutie!

Caleb tried to "honk his honker" literally...

Cruising beside her neighborhood bud Abby!

In the midst of it all - Poor Daddy had to pull the wagon for the whole parade, Momma wasn't feeling so hot.

Sitting in the firetruck afterwards - think the heat was getting to her too?

The fun was over and we headed home.

Happy 4th of July everyone!
