Fourth of July 2011

Holy moly this 4th was smokin!!! Like literally ...it was 104 degrees out side at 5pm. 

On Sunday July 3rd we went to Addison's Kaboomtown, It was ranked 3rd in the nation. 
I so badly wanted to bring Brynlee out but we went for a long time and it was hot. Every time an infant came by I would think of her and how I wished she could be there. The fireworks were great and there we tons of activites for the kids. Would I do it again? Prob not. I think it was a little too overrated for how far we drove, how long it took us to get home and there are options more near where we live anyway. But it was nice to try. I heard there was 500,000 people there! And we were on Channel 5 that night. 
The spot we had picked out to watch the show was right in front of the Channel 5 set up, so when the anchor was like and heres addison to say hi a crowd waved and cheered...we were in the crowd. 

Then on July 4th (Monday), Dalton had to go into work for a little bit so I took Brynlee to the Arlington parade by myself that morning. 

She spent time visiting with all our parade watching neighbors lol

Loving the parade!!! She boogied when the bands/music played :-)

Hydrating in that crazy heat
(The Swarbricks feet are in the background lol)

Monday night after Dalton was home we pre-fireworked at Piranhas Killer Sushi, then watched the fireworks with some awesome people from our Sunday school Class in the Arlington Highlands. 
Brynlee and her friend Aubrey Kate...She'll be sad when she moves


With her daddy watching the fireworks

The whole gang

The Carroll family ..or well soon to be anyway :-)
