We had a wonderful 4th of July that was full of parades, good food, family fun and fireworks! We started our day off by participating in the Memorial 4th of July Parade with cousins Abi and Hailey. Even though it was HOT, the kids really enjoyed it. When we got to the end of the parade route there was lots of free food, drinks and entertainment. Emily loved the watermelon and wore the proof on her dress! :) After the parade we went home to put the kids down for a quick nap before meeting Cappy for a BBQ lunch. We went straight from lunch over to Uncle Chris and Aunt Kim's house for the girls to swim. Emily and Hailey had a great time playing in the water and eating cupcakes! When we got home, both Emily and Aiden were exhausted! Mommy really wanted them to see the fireworks but none of our neighbors were doing any. Disappointed, I put them to bed only to hear fireworks starting up about an hour later. So I did what any crazy mommy would do. I woke them up! We went outside and Emily's eyes instantly lit up with excitement! She was running up and down our sidewalk pointing and babbling nonstop. Aiden relaxed in daddy's lap but was not nearly as excited as his sister. Let's just say I was glad I woke them up...it was the perfect end to our very busy 4th of July. We hope you had a wonderful 4th of July full of many memories with your friends and family!
Emily was too busy calling all her friends telling them "Happy 4th of July" to take a picture with Aiden!

That is what the 4th of July is All About, and of course the Bowers Bar-B-Que on the Guiding Light. Enjoyed my time with them. They were the talk of the parade.
Love to you al.
