Neighborhood 4th of July Parade

Hard to believe but this time of year is already here.  I now have my very own little firecracker Caelin born July 3rd, so this time of year sneaks up on me even more.  Last night we decorated our wagon so that the kids could be in the 4th of July parade this morning for our neighborhood.  Lucky for us, Gamee/Grampee had a 4th of July box with decorations that worked PERFECTLY, and...there happened to be an Uncle Sam costume which caught Cade's eye right away.  So, early this morning, Uncle Sam and the fam headed with friends to the front of neighborhood where the firetruck would lead the parade.  The kids had a great time.  We were the only wagon, so the parade went a little fast and Daddy had to run a bit with the wagon.  I laughed pretty hard watching the kids laugh while eating popcorn and feeling the wind rush by.  Daddy on the other hand came back quite sweaty.  SUPER DAD!!  After the parade, we enjoyed bounce houses, checking out the firetruck, climbing the rock wall (the adults couldn't help it), getting popcorn and toys.  We were surprised we even won some prizes!  Cade got a Mickey Mouse sprinkler and Caelin got a Minnie Mouse sprinkler.  It was a great time and we were most thankful to spend time with our neighbors/friends, The Pagnozzi's.
