Parades

This summer we hit up 2 parades.  This may surprise you but this was the first parade our kids have been to (I think).  Usually parades fell at bad times for us (for ex: nap time) and I knew they really didn't know the difference so we just skipped them.

Mount Carmel has a 4th of July parade every year and being newcomers we thought we should experience it.  The boys really enjoyed it...despite that it was a blazing 100 degrees or more outside.

I love this picture..they don't hold hands very often and I treasure these moments.

Happy 4th of July!

This parade was Fun Day in Carterville right before we moved. Fun day is the fundraiser for all the Carterville athletics.  They start the morning off with a parade and Kellen walked with his baseball team.  They have bouncy houses, bbq, and all kinds of other activities.

Kade...what shall I say about you..You had too many suckers by this point!  You were a stinker for sure.
