First Parade!
I just got back from taking the kids to their first ever parade! Since Garrick is taking his first long distance trip on his motorcycle this weekend, and he has been gone since early Thursday morning, I have been trying to keep really busy with the kids. Yesterday we had preschool, so that kept the kids busy, and luckily this is 4th of July weekend so there is lots of stuff going on to distract the kids. I found out a couple days ago that there would be an Independence Day parade this morning and the best part was that it was just a couple of blocks from the house!
Trent was just astounded and couldn’t get enough of the candy that all the cars were throwing. He was also so jazzed about all the motorcycles in the parade. Hunter was just happy to sit back and watch the sites. It was so cute to see them both waving their little flags. They are both so tired out right now. Actually, I am too. Of course, because of all the candy Trent started having meltdowns upon arriving back at the house, but that’s ok. I have been surprisingly patient with the kids all weekend, thank goodness.
Tomorrow we will be going to see fireworks in Manassas. There is a big party that is supposed to start at 4 and then the fireworks are at 9:15. I think we will have a quick snack after nap time and we’ll plan to be there at around 5:30, 6-ish and hope for the best. I hope it won’t be too crazy with them.
