4th of July

Our 4th of July was very laid back this year. We had an extra day with Ben because he got Monday off and we were due to have the movers arrive on Tuesday so I wanted something very low key. After church our wonderful, great friends Joe and Naomi came over and we went to watch the Brown Deer 4th of July parade. It's a really nice, small, short parade. Just my kind of parade. After the parade we had a cookout at home and just played games and chatted the day and evening away. It was really nice.

Here we are cheering during the parade.

Naomi, Alexis, and Audrey. What a cute trio!
