If I had to sum up our 4th of July weekend in two words, I would say - gorgeous weather. We had absolutely perfect weather. Blue skies and hot temperatures all weekend.
We worked outside in the yard for the majority of the weekend and the kids did a lot of biking, wading in their pool, and digging in the dirt.
The morning of the 4th we went to the Cascade parade. Carter and Mia both rode their jeep in the kid section of the parade, a fun tradition we’ve had Carter take part in over the last few years. Mia was so excited to join him this year. She was a very good flag waver while Carter drove.
Later that afternoon we headed to Silver Lake where Meredith’s parents host a 4th of July party. The kids had a blast playing in the lake. We had to drag them out, teeth chattering and all, when we finally wanted to eat dinner.
Carter also helped decorate the boat for the boat parade and they even stayed up for the fireworks that night! Mia was very tired by the start of the show but she was a trouper.
(Dave is the one in the tall red, white, and blue hat, and Carter is hiding behind him).
Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July!

Wonderful 4th of July. Wish we could have been there. Maybe one of these years, we'll come to Michigan earlier in the summer. Cute pictures.
