Fourth of July

Unfortunately Jared had to work on the fourth of July (although he did get paid time and a half so that's good). That morning I took the boys to the parade and my parents, Loni, and Kelci met us there. My friend Rachel joined us when she got there with her daughter Chloe and her mother.
The fire engines all had sirens going and kept blaring their horns. It scared Crue enough that he was crying. Being the mean mom that I am, I laughed. We saw our friends Lowell and Katie in one of the firetrucks (Lowell is a firefighter so he drove one of the trucks).
I love old trucks so I got a picture of this one.
Last year Crue was scared of sparklers but this year he loved them. I pretty much had to stand there with him the entire time though because would almost burn himself or others.
Mom and Crue watching the fireworks at the Sessions house. We went there for a BBQ with awesome food and great fireworks after. Jared's parents were there too so they were excited to see the boys. While we were eating there was a gutter on the edge of the house by us that didn't go all the way to the ground and had a little bit of water coming out of it. What does Crue think? It's water like at grandma and grandpa's house so he starts playing in it and then I look over (I had been telling him to get away from it since it was obviously not clean water) and he was trying to drink it! I got him away from it after that. It was funny. It was a really fun day but we sure missed daddy!
