This 4th of July, we started the day with a scrumptious red, white, and blue breakfast then headed to the McKinney parade. We try to provide Sophie with lots of opportunities to help prepare meals.

The parade was perfect for having toddlers and being in the Texas heat - short and sweet! Sophie was very pleased that handfuls of candy were thrown at her feet. We had fun seeing the creative decorations and cheering those passing by. We enjoyed the bikers, classic cars, and the antique ladder fire department truck best.
At midday we sliced up some fresh watermelon and joined several family friends for a BBQ. We feel so blessed to have a large, supportive group around us. We always have a great time with everyone.
We finished out our evening with an impressive pyrotechnic experience. Keri has LOVED fireworks since childhood and that excitement has never lessened. Every time Sophie saw a red and green firework, she'd say, "Christmas!" Christmas in July, we suppose.

It was a wonderful day and we loved spending it with our family and friends. We were happy to have several moments to reflect on our country's blessings and feel grateful.
