Fourth of July *part 1*

We started off the morning of the fourth early with a kids parade through downtown Kemah.  We decorated the wagon with balloons, beads, and floral necklaces, and the girls loved riding in the "freedom wagon" as Josh called it.  The parade went around a few blocks in Kemah, and it was so cute seeing all of the patriotic kids with their decorated bikes, strollers, and wagons. After the kids parade, we stopped to watch the big parade.  Lila collected a few pieces of candy for her and Alli, and the girls had a blast waving their flags at the firetruck and floats in the parade.
