Well, this 4th of July was going to be a BUSY one! We had 3 things to try and go to, we made 2 of them! But, the day started off with a parade! Kate Carter decided it would be fun to put on a parade in her neighborhood for her kids and friends, etc. & it grew and grew...150 evites later, the mayor and the Fayetteville fire fighters showed up to lead the parade! It was crazy! What a great idea!
Bria in her super cute outfit from her Aunt Michel! So sweet of her to get that for sissy girl, and what a perfect day to wear it! It was adorable! And fit her so well! Thanks again Aunt Michel!
Brady in his outfit - "Mr. Independent" on his shirt - couldn't be more suited for him! Also adorable! He is a little firecracker - let me tell you! That boy is a mess!
He was running everywhere and loving all the balloons that were around! He even was given a chocolate chip cookie from one of the moms there - it was EVERYWHERE! He had a great time watching everyone!
Fayetteville's mayor waving the American flag showing his pride for our country with the Fayetteville fire fighters. What a neat idea - the kids loved it!
Brady (with chocolate cookie on his face) & momma & Bria (stealing Brady's sippy cup) all watching the parade! Bria was almost in the parade but I noticed that her eye was red and runny & I realized I accidentally got sunscreen in it! :( Boo! So, we had to irrigate it...Geez...I think I did a pretty good job of taking the above picture myself! Richie was off talking to someone so I managed to get a good one!
Stopped at chic-fil-a on the way home so Brady could eat some lunch before napping and getting ready for pool party - here he is falling asleep in the car eating his nuggets. It was HYSTERICAL! I actually got it on video too...He is a mess! That parade wore them out!
Needless to say - they slept through the pool party so it was on to the Nolen's house for the Annual Nolen 4th of July bash! Of course Bria had to have a wardrobe change! Brady wore that same onsie last year to their house - I added a skirt and hair bow and she looked adorable! And, I'm glad I got this one picture bc she slept through the party at the Nolen's house! We were there from about 6:15-7:30 and she missed out on all the fun! Baba and Papa came over mid-afternoon to see the kiddos so they joined us at the Nolen's!
But Brady didn't - he LOVES their house and ALL they have to do there! It is a childs DREAM home! He went down the slide A TON...
And even went on the swing with Baba...He loves it!
But, you can tell he was getting WORN OUT...All that running around and playing on everything made this boy red cheeked and sweaty! Time for bath!
And of course - our good friends - The Hood's! Kin, Kate and Cannon (10 weeks old) - Aren't they adorable! Cannon was trying to wake Bria up so they could play but she just wanted to snooze. And, because of the massive heat wave and dryness...No fireworks this year...
The day was busy, but great fun! Love having the day off to celebrate America and the freedom we all have! Thanks so much to all the troops that have fought or are currently fighting - lots of respect go out to you...God Bless America!
