We had a GREAT 4th of July! This is one of my favorite holidays. We took Reese to her 1st parade in downtown Cartersville. She had a great time listening to all the horns and sirens, but her favorite was the guy in a duck costume. When Reese saw the duck she started yelling "Quack Quack Quack" and got mad when the duck had to move on. She really enjoyed seeing so many American flags..... this child LOVES the flag. If there is a flag anywhere near us she knows exactly where it is and expects you to start singing "Hooray for the red white & blue." Then she dances to the song and pretends to wave a flag in her hand. It's really precious!

After the parade we went up to the lake and spent the day swimming and visiting with friends and family. We had a huge low country boil for supper which was followed by fireworks at dark. Reese loved the fireworks and wasn't scared of them at all. She was really tired from staying up so late and immediately fell asleep in the car on the way home. Hooray for the red, white & blue!
