Happy Fourth of July!!!

We started celebrating the fourth a little bit early this year. Grandma bought Bryson two July 4th shirts, and I made him one, so he had three shirts to wear. We wore them all week {might as well wear them while you can!}!


 They celebrated at Erin's too. Bryson made this really cute wind sock out of a tin can, paint, and ribbons. It is hanging on our back porch.  :)
 The morning of the 4th we met Stacey, Lili, and Eric for a parade in their neighborhood. We didn't know that WE were going to BE the parade! There was a lady with balloons and a man passing out little flags to the kids. We lead the way down the street to the park followed by a firetruck, ambulance, and police car. Simple but so much fun. Bryson loved the fire truck!

 Lili the Patriotic Princess!


 Watermelon is a must on July 4th!

 The firemen passed out hats and sticker badges. Bryson was in Heaven!
 And what is a good holiday without water balloons?


 Sitting in the firetruck!
 After the parade we ate lunch and Bryson napped for a while. Then we headed over to the MacDonald's for some grilling.

 For dessert I made a patriotic fruit tart...
 and patriotic rice krispie treats!
It was a great day.  :)
Happy 4th of July!
