Happy Fourth!

We had a fun Fourth of July weekend...especially cause the girls looked so cute in all their patriotic gear! On Thursday, the girls and I went to a pool party with our playgroup friends. As I was managing the girls solo, there are no photos of the event.

Friday we just hung out around the house and enjoyed the wonderful weather...the high was only around 85! Crazy!!


Saturday we went to the Fairfax Parade. It was a first for the girls. They seemed to like the marching bands and the big balloons.

The parade lasted for about 2 hours, so we were all pretty tired when it was over.
But that afternoon we went to our neighborhood pool (and while it is nice that it is so cool up here, it makes the pool very COLD!). Lots of fun to go to the pool with Daddy. When he is there, the girls get to get into the big pool. Brooke loves the big pool...she like to "swim" by herself with her little floaties on. It is adorable but it makes me quite nervous.

Glad y'all had a good 4th - any MS trips planned?

That first picture with the girls looking over their shoulders is my favorite. They both look very happy. And I see the necessary sidewalk chalk if you're going to be outside!
