Every year we go to the Brandon Parade to start off our Indepence Day celebration! Coined (by us) "the hottest place on earth", we usually sweat through the parade while the kids (unphased by the oppressing heat) jump around excitedly as the floats ride by, and they never fail to gather up a ridiculous amount of candy and beads every time. This year, we had overcast skies and even (dare I say) a refreshing breeze...and to top it off we found a spot under a huge shaded tree = Best parade day ever! :)
After the parade, Stetson (aka grill master) whipped up some amazing burgers and we basically vegged for the rest of the day. I think we are still recovering from the busyness of the past 2 weeks! When evening came, we met with friends and neighbors in the community square for music and fireworks. Then we came back to the culdesac to hang again with neighbors on our street, and we set off a pretty impressive (and incredibly LOUD) display of fireworks for a entire hour! It was a great day!
Exciting!! (:
