I am determined to catch up, so yes, I am posting about the Fourth of July nearly 2 months later.
We started out the day with the neighborhood bike parade, everyone who participated decorated their bicycles with red, white and blue streamers, garland, etc. and American flags and then 4 or 5 fire trucks came in to lead us in a big loop around the neighborhood. Even though it started at 9 a.m. it was still ridiculously hot, even too hot for Savannah and she was just riding in the covered bicycle trailer. Needless to say we didn't make it the entire loop, despite the heat it was still fun.
Checking out the fire trucks, for some reason James was quite tickled by my patriotic attire.
Right after we took this picture we figured out, with a little help from a fire fighter, how to turn on the siren. The fire chief was about 10 yards in front of the truck, he got quite the scare.
Later that morning we went over to ZZ's to swim, this series of photos shows why James is now Savannah's favored pool parent. I'm all about teaching her how to swim and he's all about having fun, fun always wins.
We capped off our evening with Savannah's first live fireworks show, she was very thoroughly impressed!
