Our Fourth!

Hey! Happy Fourth of July! Our was a blast, i love the fourth and was so happy to be able to spend some time with John for it. Us ladies started the day by going to a parade, it was fun, different from UT parades but awesome in its own way. They had tons of Picallo bands (i never knew what a picallo was til this parade, i only knew that the Dixie Chicks sing about one once) Anyway, so much of the parade was in this colonial style clothes

I don't know what is up with mini-size everything but we thought they were pretty cool and they had tons for these cars and mini motorcyles that were ridden by big old men....it was funny :)That night we met the boys in New Haven (you know, where Yale University is) and had a BBQ and watched the fireworks. It was a lot of fun and here's the cake Kara and I made

Me and my Hubby

The whole group, thanks guys it was a blast!

Did i mention that we watched the fireworks next to an nutcase? She was CRAZY! This is her talking to the fireworks, and basically crying because they were just "so beautiful". She was super..... i don't know.....entertaining.....ya thats a good word for it. Anyway, good times and of course John had to get a picture, she was so drunk....
And this is our 4th of July decorations :) Hey, it was better than nothing!
Happy Fourth Everyone! I hope you all had as good of one as we did, I love Red White and Blue!
