Fourth of July

We started our holiday celebrations on the 3rd with a barbecue at Dean and Brenda's house.  A lot of Zach's extended family was there.

After dinner, we went to the Lochland fireworks show.  Monroe had liked the booms and pretties she had seen in our neighborhood earlier in the week, so I thought she would like the show.


It was a total success.  Monroe loved the pretties and didn't mind the booms!

The next morning, we went to Fisher Fountain for a kid's parade.  
Monroe rode in Dedrick's wagon with him.

Then we went and did some of the activities.  Monroe loved the duck pond.

Mikki, our daycare lady, made Monroe this dress.  Isn't it cute?
Uncle Derek tried to help Monroe shoot a basket, but it was a little difficult.

That afternoon we tried swimming (Monroe wasn't in the mood), and then we had a barbecue at Doug and Melinda's house. It was a great time with family and friends.


Happy 4th of July!
