These are from the second parade. It was a town parade and Jason and Vicki go every year. It was great, I got a wonderful tan and some candy. And there was this huge guy riding around on a very small scooter go kart thingy that was absolutely hilarious.

Mom with Claire
Me holding the flag balloon so we would never forget this picture was taken on the 4th
Josh riding his big boy bike (that was 2 bucks at a yard sale) - he was so proud.
Vicki, Jason, Claire and Josh under the hat
Claire's sweet ride
Does this star headband remind anyone else of Rainbow Brite?
Josh made a sign to go on his bike that said, "Happe Amrica Day". Couldn't have said it better myself
These are all taken right before the BBQ after everyone woke up from their naps - SO. MUCH. ENERGY!Josh asked me to take a picture of him with the Mountain Dew. I told him his uncles would be very proud.
Josh loved jumping off this table, then running to see the picture I got after wards. Claire is looking mischievous.
And this picture is so funny I had to put it up. I think she was throwing a rock or just screaming for the fun of it - all I know is I'm glad I caught it. It should give her a pretty good chuckle when she's older.
Handsome boy. It's hard to catch one of these smiles from him.
Sparklers!
I had such a good time visiting that when I got home it took about 4 days of serious funkness because I felt so alone. For almost 2 weeks I had people around me all the time - which is what I love. Being at home I'm by myself all day till Jaren can come home unless I get out and find someone to do something with. I was going through serious social withdraws. I'm much better now - back into the groove of things. But I really do wish I had my family closer - like same town closer.
