4th of July Celebration

I'm trying to play catch up on my blog posts.  The Fourth of July was a blast and filled with parties, festivals, parades, fireworks, good food and great friends!  We spent time at the Malone Park festival and ran into some friends.  We tried our luck on some games and a few rides.  The new favorite activity was the flash light candy hunt in the dark.

The boys reluctantly posed for a picture with Miss New Berlin after I bribed them with ice cream!!!

Sean's ready for the flash light candy hunt!
We switched things up this year and went to the Brookfield parade with our cousins instead of Tosa.  It was a hot one but only an hour.  The kids had fun squirting water guns back at the parade goers!  Then it was off to the New Berlin parade where Alex and Dave walked in it with his Magic baseball team.  At this point, a tub of ice cubes was about the only thing that could cool us down!
The cousins waiting patiently for the parade to start.

My two favorite patriotic boys!

There's Alex and the Magic boys!
These guys were the best part about the parade!
We made visits to Grandpa and Grandma Michna's house and then Papa and Nana's house before ending the night with a fireworks display at Malone Park.  A day filled with so many fun, summer activities to celebrate the Fourth of July!
