Happy Independence Day!

We have been going to the WJ parade for the last 5 or 6 years on the 4th of July. It is a good little parade and this year the weather was perfect! It rained a few misty drops but was low 80's and overcast. So nice. We trade off who has to go early to set up chairs since it gets seriously crowded. I went at 7 and put the stuff in our normal spot. Well, I hadn't checked the city website (why would I? Like I said we have been doing this for years) and apparently the route changed to go up 7800 instead of to the courthouse at 80th and of course we were on Redwood, just past 78th. Ok, so our stuff was not in the parade route. So we had to fight a little for seating. Stinks. But it's fine. Till people were rudey-heads and stood (that's right STOOD) in front of us. Whatever people. But the weather was nice!
The group/crowd waiting for the parade
Some cute kids (he didn't have an attitude about being there, just the picture taking)

The whole family had (has) matching shirts. D LOVES it! It's his favorite.
Yea for freedom!

Clapping is a pretty new thing; stinking adorable
Then that night we pretty much had everyone we know who didn't have better plans over for a BBQ. (If you weren't there, same time next year!) I don't have any pictures because I really only sat down to eat and then to put the baby down. But we had a good time; food and fireworks! And the neighborhood was C-R-A-Z-Y with fireworks-seriously, so many aerials! Fun stuff.
