happy 4th of July

Well we braved the heat and rode our bikes on over to the parade. Ethan was very excited about it and Jude seemed a bit overwhelmed. But once he got some candy he thought it was a pretty fun thing too. This time I went overboard with our sun protection. Not only did we sunscreen every visible part of our skin, but we also wore hats, sunglasses and had umbrellas over us to give us a little shade. Did I mention it was unbearably hot?


Mr. Wally Amos himself (Famous Amos cookies anyone?).


They had the typical highschool bands, politicians, Hawaiian bands and pimped out Dodge trucks...but this year we were a bit disappointed in all of the "groups" out there that were trying to make a statement with "keeping it country", "no rail", "no gates, keep our beaches open", etc. I could go on and on. Anyway it's our 3rd year to attend the 4th of July parade and it's kind of a fun tradition.

Later we are going to our friends house to have a bar-b-que and then off to the beach to watch the fireworks.
