4th of July ~ Bike Parade

We started the 4th of July off with a breakfast of pancakes and bacon at home and then we were off to Victoria to the local grocery store for their first annual Independence Day Parade, YEA!

Michael being silly!

Now he's being serious...He was excited but not like you could tell. This was his first parade.

He thinks he is just HOT stuff, lol...

Since this was the first parade the grocery store had done and it was the first year for it, it was very-very small but I love small parades. They also just toured the parking lot, which was really nice. We could see the whole parade from one vantage point, lol....

Here comes the children on their bikes...They were all so cute and so excited!

The color guard with our Flag!

There was also a Hummer, a firetruck, a police car, and the store mascot in a pick up truck, lol...(I said it was short, lol) Fred said "Short and Sweet"!

Michael did not win a trophy but he did receive a goody bag for participating and these "Star" glasses were in it, LMBO!!

Thank you HEB for helping the children celebrate the 4th!

Right before we left I had a good chuckle when I saw this...

Too Cute! (Maybe we should have brought Jake?)

Now that all happened before 10am...

The rest of the story of our 4th to follow...

Which includes,

Swimming, WaveRunners, Kayaks, Water rescues, and silly people doing stupid things :o)
