Happy 4th of July!

We had such a jammed packed fun filled day! We got up and went to the 2 hour parade. Yes, that is right the parade lasted 2 HOURS! At least it was overcast and so we weren't hot! Then we went out to eat for lunch right afterwards because it was lunchtime and I was HUNGRY. When we got home we set off some fireworks and pop its MonkeyBoy had gotten for his birthday, J told the kids that he would have some more tonight after he came home, we'll see. Then it was naps for everyone even ME. Both the boys slept but GlamorGirl just took a quiet time in her room resting. J called to tell me he got some special wrist bands for us ;) A total perk of his job! So Amy came over we ate an early dinner and off to the carnival we went. The kids went on so many rides and had a blast I wish I had brought my camera, they are real thrill seekers. Then it was off to the fireworks. The kids played with sparklers and wore their light up necklaces we had gotten in Disney. I love J's job sometimes but at others I wish he worked somewhere else. He didn't get to watch the fireworks with us which was a bummer but we did get special parking and were home in a matter of 10 minutes. The kids enjoyed the $40,000 fireworks display that the town puts on, I just can't believe that they cost so much money. I hope everyone out in blogland had as much fun today as we did.
