MHS 86-ers: Becky, Patrick & Kelli with Seamus, Margaux & James
She was a very serious little parade watcher!
All decked out in her festive wear!
Miss Audrey hanging out curbside!
Auntie Bex & MVP waiting for the fireworks to begin.July 4th already and it hasn't truly felt like summer yet...crazy weather this season! I always get very nostalgic for the 4th of July memories of my youth...being in Mackinaw City watching the fireworks by the water while eating carmelcorn and a pastie and seeing tons of people I know. The later years were spent with my Arnold Line crew and summer friends tipping back a few beers and watching from the end of the State Dock. *sigh* Good times! Anyway, this year was of course MVP's first 4th and this made things fun for us. We awoke to yet another gray and drizzly day, but we still headed out to the Glen Ellyn 4th of July parade to meet up with Kelli and Becky. Becky was here from NYC and we got to meet her super-cute little boy, Seamus, who happens to be a big fan of parades! It's always nice to see Kelli & Hugh and their adorable James & Audrey as well. We headed home for a nice nap after the parade and then met up with Bex & Dale in Oak Park for the village fireworks. It was a pretty sweet little display and Dale took many pictures that I am sure turned out fabulous! We took Jasper with us because we wanted to include him in the festivities, he did PRETTY well, but I think that being so close to where the fireworks were being shot off was a bit too much stimulation for him. Hope you all had a fun holiday!

I was so surprised that Margaux wasn't terrified of the fireworks given how close we were to them being set off! The noise frightened me a little but she was peaceful as could be!
Had a great time hanging.
Yay for parades and fireworks and little miss Margaux's first 4th of July! Cute dress!
