A Fabulous Fourth

We don't always get to spend July 4th with my family, but it was part of my mom's birthday present again this year and what a fabulous fourth we had!

  

July 4th started bright and early with a short road trip to Granbury to meet up with all my parents & siblings for some parade watching, a big lunch, and some shopping on the square.

Blake & Uncle Andrew

 

Right after this picture Blair scared me to death by wandering across the street ~15 feet. Thankfully the street was closed off to traffic for the parade, but still.

 

 

The Penny family!

 

Cousin Colt

 

A few pictures from the parade.

 

Waving to the floats. After her trip across the street she stayed strapped in.

 

Almost everyone.

 

All my B's loved having Colt time!

 

Bailey & Gigi

Then it was back to Santo for a short quiet time/cool off. Thanks Gigi for the patriotic suits!

 

 

 

Then we headed off to Weatherford for dinner.

 

This part of my post is dedicated to my brother Andrew and his ever-growing animal collection.

  New additions include, Pumpkin the pig.

 

And Bucky the deer.

 

 

And it's always fun to see the chickens.

 

Bailey was trying to catch one.

 

 

She will have to learn from the master, Andrew.

 

 

Singing happy birthday to Gigi!

 

The boy cousins.

For fireworks, we headed over to the Morris's house (a college friend of my dads).

 

Tori & Blair

 

Blair liked the fireworks once she got used to them.

 

Bailey found her a good spot on top of the van.

Happy Birthday America!
