Happy 4th of July!

We had a wonderful day celebrating our country’s freedom!  We got started early and participated in our neighborhood’s annual parade.  Riley was very excited to decorate her car this year, so we hit up the dollar store a few days prior and let her have her pick of red, white & blue decorations.

This little man was pumped about riding with sissy!

These two were in awe of all the other kids and mix of red, white & blue!

Riley takes her driving very seriously!

After a quick nap and a stop for a snow cone, we headed to my parents’ house to celebrate my sister’s birthday.

We were the first to arrive, so we hit up the pool, had a few snacks and took the tractor for a spin.

I am so proud of my sweet girl.  She has really braved the water these last couple of weeks and is becoming quite the little fish.  After spending the weekend with her cousins in their new pool (post to come), she has a new confidence about her and loves to show off the new things she can do.  We started swim lessons last week, so I can imagine this is just the beginning!
