4th of July - Parade

I hope everyone had a happy 4th of July..ours was pretty eventful (as always)..it started out with the annual parade at PaPa's house...the kids love it (I think the adults even enjoy it ..lol) and then some good Texas barbecue...this year we were joined by Granny's brother Dean, his wife Dolly and their little doggy Duffy...There were a lot of pics (and I am sure I posted too many..I know I know use the scrolling album feature...nnnaaaaahhhhhh...If I had to sort 'em you have to look at 'em)

Keira blowing bubbles while waiting for the parade...I LOVE the outfit (Thanks PaPa)

PeePaw heading the chairs and Shane heading after Austin

He's got a bubble gun !!!! (the bubble part of it sucked, but he didn't care..he had a gun)

I think Daddy's chair is a little big

"If I hide in here maybe they won't see me"

"Come on, parade !!! Get here "

PaPa and Granny's brother Dean

"Look Mommy" (PaPa has been working with that stick for weeks to make a hole in the ground...oops !!! )
