4th of July

Our 4th of July celebration began on the 3rd. CK was in the Patriotic Sing. They started with a performance on the 3rd. Her cousin E and good friend K were also a part of the Patriotic Sing. The three girls did great.

We all got up bright and early on the 4th so the girls could be on a float in the parade. How fun! Not getting up early (had to find parking and be on the float by 9:15am). CK loved being in the parade. The Patriotic Sing float was #44, so CK was able to sit and watch the rest of the parade with us.

After C went to work the girls and I barbecued at our good friends. We then went to the park so the girls could do one last Patriotic Sing performance and watch the fireworks. Well the girls got to sing - in front of thousands of people, BTW, but there were no fireworks. They had to call them off. It was too windy. The girls were very disappointed, as you can imagine. Better to be safe, but they waited MUCH TOO LONG to decide to cancel (that's another story).

Did you miss the parade? Did your town not have one? Maybe you would like to see the parade again. Here is your chance. Our Patriotic Sing and 4th of July photos are online! I did it all by myself. Thanks to Lightroom.
