Today is the 4th of July. This morning Auntie Cate, Jeff, and Ryland came over and we walked down the street to watch a parade. Autumn was grouchy all morning so she pretty much stayed with Daddy, but the rest of us sat on the curb and watched. I didn’t really like it when noisy things went by, but it was pretty fun to watch-for awhile. I saw police men, fire trucks, HORSES, kids, clowns and lots of other stuff.
And we’re off. I’ve got the snack bag!
There we go, now there’s 3 of us in the picture.
Let’s sit and have a drink while we wait.
Autumn, are you coming?
I gave Ry a treat. I don’t think he knew what to do with it.
Bite it Ryland-it’s yummy!
See I told you.
Hi daddy.
Whatcha got there?
Hurry, the parade is starting
See the fancy police car?
It’s horses!
Only in Colorado do you see a bull walking down the street. They were there to tell us about the county fair-I can’t wait to go to that.
We walked up to the place where they have games and stuff. I got to get my face painted. I really was happy about it, but I wouldn’t smile for mom to take a picture.
Next we went to the mini train for a ride.
Autumn sat with another little girl. She had fun, but wouldn’t smile!
Here we come-the train conductor went around and around.
After our train ride we were off to see the horses. Really they were donkeys but I wouldn’t ride a donkey, so let’s just call them horses.
Here’s my grouchy sister again. She didn’t want to ride a donkey, but she and Ryland went on the train again.
It was a really fun morning, but man was it hot! It must’ve been a million degrees, well ok, 90ish. When we got home the ac was nice and cool and we relaxed at home. Tonight after Autumn goes to bed, Mom is going to show me something called fireworks. She says we have to wait until it gets dark, but the fireworks are being shot off practically across the street from our house so we don’t have to go anywhere.
