Fourth of July 2011

Happy 4th of July!!

This year for the 4th we stayed in Malibu, and had a nice and relaxed holiday! One of our friends invited us to the Pepperdine Kids 4th of July Parade, made up mostly of kids who live on campus. It turned out to be more of a 'race' than a parade, and we were cracking up at all the kids racing around the parking lot in a loop. Lindsay enjoyed waving to all the kids passing by. Maybe next year we will decorate her Princess Mobile...

I wanted to get some shots of our little ham in her patriotic dress.

Giggling at what? I have no clue.

Mommy & Lindsay.... It was like 84 degrees that day, (hot for the Bu') and we were out in the sun, so she is making her tired face :)

We BBQ'd for dinner, set off the smoke alarm (promised public safety we were not setting off fireworks indoors) and put the baby to bed. She tried to make it until 9pm, but that is super late for her, so she missed out on seeing the firework show. We did too, unfortunately, but were not about to leave our sleeping kid. So instead we watched the HBO miniseries, John Adams, (Which is fabulous if you are into American History) which detailed the first 4th of July and Declaration of Independence...so there's our patriotic spirit! Then we went to bed. LOL Hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday!
