For the first year, our fam decided to celebrate the fourth at home with the neighborhood clan. They organize a big parade every year, followed by games and a picnic at the park, so that was our game plan this year. We did miss the cabin, but this was rowdy too.
The kids helped us decorate the stroller and Dude's bike, we packed a bunch of food (man am I already tired of packing picnics already this summer) and headed to the park. Good times. That evening we headed to the Kroms beautiful new house for a cook out and ate our brains out. Lime a Ritas became a new friend of mine thanks to that BBQ. Have you tried? Hope you enjoyed your 4th as much as we did!
Squirt's best girly friends. How darling are they?
Our Randy. Who the men in the neighborhood emulate.
Dude lined up with his buddy Josh for the egg hunt but bailed the second he saw the first egg break. He wasn't about the allow his hands to feel the effects of losing this game. That's our kid.
By the end of the day this patriotic dress (saved just for this occasion was toast. Between Popsicles, ketchup, paint, egg, snot and who knows what else, it was destined for the clothing grave.
Some of my very favoritest girls in all the world. How blessed am I that they all live within a block of me?
