I love living in a master planned community. I love living across the street from two nice lakes and a big park. And I really love that one of the community Fourth of July festivities is held RIGHT THERE. This is actually the first year that Doug and I have walked over to check it all out! They have a parade for the kids to ride bikes in, as well as ride in wagons. You can decorate up your bike and/or wagon, and there's a contest. There's even a contest for best dressed-up dog. They sold hotdogs and sno cones, had inflatables, a DJ, and a train that went on the sidewalk around the lake. (The line to ride that train was waaaaay too long, and thankfully Eli really didn't notice it, so whew, were saved from that one). We got there just in time to jump into the parade route and pull eli in his wagon through the neighborhood. Next year, we'll definitely have to decorate up our wagon! Here are some pictures from the day:
Walking over to the festivities....
I totally think this dog should have won in the dog category....
Walking in the "parade"
We ran into some neighbors, who so kindly took this picture of us.
Eli playing with the bubble machine in this wagon that was decorated to look like a secret service car!
The DJ started a line dance in the park area, so of course I had to grab E and go try it out for a while....
