4th of July

We had such a fun 4th of July this year. My new neighborhood really goes all out to celebrate, which was nice because we didn't have to go anywhere. Here are my kids in their 4th of July shirts I made.

I made Clara some pants to go with hers.

Our neighbors across the street have a huge celebration every year which includes a children's parade where the kids decorate their bikes and cars and ride around the block. We had so much fun with this task and decided to make reid's car look like a real float.

The starting line. Look how cute the balloon arch was. This family makes it so much fun.
Look how many kids there are in this neighborhood. It is crazy. My kids absolutely love it.

Reid is ready to go.

Clara is ready to go.



They set up awnings all over their front yard for the bbq after the parade.

They set up bounce houses for the kids to play in.

Here we are eating our hamburgers and hot dogs. That night we went to another neighbors house for fireworks. It was a fun day. Reid was so excited because he got to light some of the fireworks.
