Happy 4th!

We had a fun, long 4th of July weekend!  We kicked off the holiday at a festival by our house.  The weather was absolutely perfect.  Alex enjoyed riding the "bunny horse" on the carousel and the choo-choo train.  The park had some playgrounds too which Alex loved.

On Monday, we went to the Tosa parade with Papa & Nana Michna and Annie & Mark.  It was neat to see Alex's reaction to it all.  I think his favorites were the mini go-karts, motorcycles and marching bands.  Papa made us burgers on the grill and then it was off to Papa & Nana Beyer's for the afternoon.  The cousins enjoyed playing in the pool and on the swing set.  Dave lit his annual firecrackers for everybody's enjoyment.  We didn't quite make it to the fireworks but we did see some in the sky on our drive home so Alex could enjoy.  However, he wasn't a huge fan of the noise so it was probably better that we skipped them this year.
