July 4th

We had a great July 4th weekend! We celebrated for 3 days! We spent Friday night with our small group building & decorating our trailer for the 4th parade, had a pool party, & enjoyed some great treats & fellowship. Saturday we were part of the Cleveland 4th parade promoting VBS. Our covered wagon float won 2nd place overall! The kids threw candy, the adults passed out VBS flyers wrapped in Silly Bands, & Amber & I strolled the babies in our decorated strollers- lots of fun! I saw lots of WV students & teachers which always makes me smile! We went home & rested up for a Shrimp Boil cookout & back to Cleveland for fireworks with our group.

Olivia loved the fireworks! Her eyes got VERY big when they first started going off, but she watched in amazement. We tried to capture her face, but the pictures just didn't do it justice. She was a trooper & stayed up past bedtime & was a happy girl! As soon as we got in the car she was out! Sunday we had some friends over for a cookout & Olivia & Luke enjoyed some bonding time. Luke was having so much fun he didn't want to go home. He cried & Olivia decided to help him out & tuned up too- it was cute! We are in for it with these 2 growing up as buddies!

Her 1st 4th of July was lots of fun! Thanks for a great weekend!
