Isotopes game and fireworks on Saturday, 4th of July parade in Corrales, swimming and lunch at Grandma's and BBQ with more fireworks at Grandpa Denis' on Sunday! What a weekend. It was so action packed that four out of five kids actually took naps on Sunday. That is absolutely unheard of around here...usually it is just the two babies who sleep during the day. All of the kids just loved the fireworks and really seemed to get in to the spirit of the day. They even sang America The Beautiful with Grammy and Grandma Sallie before chowing down on the red white and blue cupcakes!
Not sure when 4th of July became a candy holiday....this is only about half of what the kids collected from the various floats.
Thomas rode on the Corrales Swim Team float this year. The kids each had a super soaker to squirt out at the crowd. For once, I was welcoming Thomas' antics with a water gun. "SHOOT ME PLEASE!" It was really hot outside!
...and when it was all over we had some tuckered out little ones!
