July Fourth

We had a great fourth! The only down side was that Trav had to work in the morning. Seriously annoying. Anyways my Mom and I took the boys to the McKinney parade. It was scorching hot and quiet a pathetic parade, but we still had a great time. Fifty percent of the parade was motorcycles which Carter hated and Boston loved. The other half were horses, a couple fire trucks, and random old people driving nice cars. I absolutely love the 4th of July it is one of my favorite holidays by far. Along with fall it is the only time of year that I miss Utah. There really isn't anywhere like Provo on the 4th. After the parade we walked around old town McKinney and ate some delicious snow cones. Do me a favor put a pixie stick on top of the next snow cone you eat I promise you wont regret it. Amazing I tell ya!


After the parade we came home and gave the boys a bath and put them down for naps. Trav got home and we all headed over to the pool to swim. It was Carter's first time taking a dip in the pool. He was a big fan! Boston is crazy in the pool. Seriously he has pretty much no fear when it comes to swimming. His favorite thing is when we chuck him as far as we can in the pool.



After swimming we had some dinner, relaxed, and headed over to fireworks. Give Boston some glow sticks and he is a very happy camper. We all Loved the fireworks and vowed to never go to Plano's fireworks again. McKinney's were so much better and we got home in about 20 minutes instead of almost the two hours it took us last year in Plano.

Happy Fourth of July!!! We love this land and feel so blessed to live in this country and thank all those who have and do fight for our freedom.
