Happy 4th!

Happy 4th of July!!  

It was a WONDERFUL laid back day.  We really enjoyed ourselves so much.   I wanted to have a cookout at the house, but just didn't get things together in time so I wasn't able to do it.    I was a little sad, but after having such a fab day - I was not so sad, because the day was so stress free!  STRESS-FREE!  LOVE STRESS-FREE! 

We start our morning out at the annual 4th of July parade in St. Marys!  Of course, I couldn't get the boys to look for a picture!  Silly boys! 
Colin loved waving his flag and waiting for the parade! 
Marissa waiting for the parade to start! 
I can't believe how grown she looks, even from just last year at this time.  She will be a junior when school starts in August and that is HARD to believe for me!  Wow!  I am getting old! 
 Grammy & Cade
Still waiting!  
We always have to get there about an hour early to find a spot to sit.  It normally fills up so very quickly and you don't have anywhere to sit.   We try to get in the same spot each year - the shade!   Even though it is pretty early in the morning, it still gets hot.   Cade is obviously not a good waiter!  He was ready for it to start right then and even got a little grumpy that we had to wait.  That boy!! 
But water, and a little Sissy hug makes it all worth while...
Colin & Mommy waiting for the parade!  :)
Love this picture!  It melts my heart.
Colin really wanted to see a Marching Band in the parade.  He talked about it for two days straight.  Every time I packed up to go to the pool, he didn't want to go because he wanted to see the Marching Band!  If I needed to run to the store, he needed to see the Marching Band.  I tried to explain to him many times that I wasn't sure we would see a Marching Band, but he was set on it.  Finally, I was able to tell him that they would have a lot of tractors in the parade - this is South Georgia, you know!  Haha!  The tractors were the highlight of the parade for him so I tried to take a picture of at least one! 
For Colin the parade was a success!
