This weekend was the 4th and Derek and I didn't make any plans, so we just went with the flow. I can't remember what we did Friday night, but Saturday was the annual Parade in the small town he grew up and (and I currently work in). It's a tradition that we go every single year! This year it rained a little so it prevented a few of our favorites in the parade, but it was ok. We also got to enjoy it for the first time with the Richardsons!

My little sailor and I-This picture cracks me up. And no, that's not a dress. ha ha!

That evening, we decided to have our friends over for burgers and fireworks. I wasnt able to take but a couple of pictures b/c my hands were full. The girls all played w/the babies & the guys bbq'd and played with fireworks the whole time.
typical.

I did managed to make a red white and blue jello pie.

Tiffany & Zach even stopped by for some fun-aka-the guys drinking beer & trying to balance on the pipe over the water. lol.

So fun!! What a wonderful Fourth. Great pictures and love Gavin in his red, white, and blue!!! :)
Aw thanks for posting those pics of the parade! I so miss going to that. When I was little I rode my bike in that parade every year & then in JR High I rode the cheerleaders float with my squad. I so wish we lived closer so we could've taken Rylie this year. Do they still do the events in the park after the parade? They used to also do a street dance for the fire dept, but only every other year. That was a lot of fun too! Ohh so homesick seeing those buildings behind yall seriously! Glad you posted these pics & glad yall had a good 4th! ;-)
Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! I got burned too but not too bad, thank God!
Yay for the pie. You know how I love my treats. It looked really yummy!
