Happy 4th of July!

(I want to warn you that this post has a TON of pictures.)

We've been celebrating the 4th all weekend. Caroline had spirit day at daycare of Friday. Here she is all decked out in her red, white, & blue. She was watching Mickey Mouse before we left the house and in this picture she was dancing to one of the songs Mickey was singing!


Friday night we went to see the fireworks in Cumming...not sure why they did them 2 days early but they did and we had fun hanging out as a family! Caroline got a glow in the dark necklace and bracelet. She thought she was something! She loved running around and making new friends while we waited for it to get dark outside! Blake taught her how to catch lightening bugs...the only problem is she would squeeze them so hard they would die. We'll need to work on that!










Then this morning we went to a parade in Cumming. It was a steam engine parade and for the most part Caroline enjoyed it. It was a long parade (2 hours) so we left after an hour b/c we were all getting sun burned and Caroline was ready for a nap. Caroline had to wear ear plugs because the steam engines were soo loud.









Even though we've had so much fun the last 24 hours...I want to also remember why we are celebrating this holiday. I want to thank our troops for ALL they do so that we can have freedom in the USA. The troops and their families sacrifice a lot and for that I'm so grateful. God Bless all that you do for our country!
