We got up at 4:30 am yesterday to go to Vernon Hills to watch the 4th of July parade. After stopping for breakfast and almost getting lost in VH, we made it just in time for the parade. It was a great day with family. Thought you might enjoy a few pictures.
Grace riding in a red convertable (Grandpa's dream car, by the way). She's getting candy out of her bag to throw to the kids.
After the parade, Grace had to go to the baseball field to throw out the first pitch at several little league games. Couldn't get a good picture of that, but here she is loving her little brother, Owen.
I love this picture of all of us. It was a fun day. We also were able to celebrate Owen's 10th birthday which is Wednesday.
Just had to throw this picture in also. Nathan spent a couple days with us last week and we took him to the spillway park at Lake Bloomington. We climbed down the hill (scarry for Grandpa and me) and got right to the waterfront. Grandpa is handing Nathan a rock to throw into the water.
Of course, he had to get his feet wet - almost tempted me to step into the water also! Fun time!
