Go 4th!

We love the 4th of July in Peachtree City! It all begins with the parade in the morning.
And this year we wised-up and brought the Sportsbrella. We became part of the parade because every other float participant would give us the thumbs up and say, "Great idea!"

Julia loved the parade too. I love that her feet don't even touch the ground when sitting on the curb.

We had Rich Marsh join us too since his family abandoned him for Europe.


My two favorite people!


Yes, it's true...I don't know what's happened to me. I put bows in my daughter's hair and I buy matching shirts for me and Greg. It's almost embarrassing!


My wonderful friend Susan made this adorable 4th of July tank for her!


I always love me a good marching band! 


This golfcart won first place, I think. 

And this golfcart was "Christmas in July"


Julia got lots of candy, which we stole from her, but she did like these beads someone threw at us. Can't you just see the intent studying of all the crazies in the parade? She loved it so much she refused to take a nap.


After two barbecues, we went to West Point Lake to see the fireworks on the lake.
"I'm Popeye the Sailor-baby!" How did she know to do this right when she got on the water?

What you can't see underneath this lifejacket is that Greg forgot Julia's pants. So now she had a wife-beater tank and no pants. I think if we'd given her a beer she would have fit right-in in LaGrange.


Okay, so now its obvious that she was Popeye because the lifejacket was too big. This is Aaron, Alicia's little boy, and I think he imprinted on Julia. Seriously.


Beautiful sunset


Boats were all lined up waiting for the show


Too cute to be embarrassed by the matching outfits!


Watching fireworks on a lake was definitely spectacular. Unfortunately LaGrange's fireworks show wasn't even close to being as amazing as PTC.


Julia LOVED the fireworks. It was like her favorite Baby Einstein toy that has flashing lights times a million!


And today we tried swimming again. She sure looks adorable, but she sure hated the pool. 

Now I have a husband and a baby that I can't get to go swimming with me. It's like they're vampires or something!

I like the matching outfits! The Ptc show wasn't too good this year.they botched the finale so you didn't miss too much. That baby girl is growing fast I think I see a few rolls to pinch!

Hahahaha. you are killing me. If someone said "guess which friend bought matching t-shirts for she and her spouse and dolled her baby up in Americana galore" - I would NEVER have guessed you in a million years. I love what Julia is turning you into. :)

I almost bought us all flag shirts this year, but I thought Brian would make fun of me.
