4th of July

We spent the 4th of July at MAE-MAE and Grampie's house hanging out, grilling out, eating and taking naps (okay, maybe that part was just me and Sydney :) ).   We got there before it got TOO hot, so we spent a few minutes grabbing some pictures of Sydney first.

Saying 'cheese' for the camera

Playing with the rocks

She's so stinkin' cute

We also went to watch the neighborhood parade, which I must say was MUCH bigger than the one we saw a couple of years ago.

Waiting for the parade

Putting her flags in the ground

the parade

her favorite part of the parade?  that they threw lollipops.

once she got her hands on the lollipop she tossed the flags to the ground and was 100% focused on the lollipop

my favorite parade participant.  there is NO WAY that Bentley would let me dress him like that. but look how cute this little guy is.

Sydney found a card that played music when you opened it, and she spent most of the day dancing around.  I think the adults might still have this song stuck in our heads, given the number of times we heard it that day.
