Yay for the fourth!
We had a really fun day. I decorated the house with blue streamers and white carnations. I made a really good breakfast of french toast, fruit kabobs, and bacon, that my dad came over to help us enjoy. Then Lei and I went swimming. Well she swam and I sun bathed, but I did get in to cool off. She kept yelling at me asking me if I was hot enough to cool off in the water with her. I am a little red, and my tan lines are funny, my swim suit has a key hole cut-out.
Then we made some festive cookies...er...I did, Lei just decorated the same cookie over and over again eating the frosting in between. Then we got ready to go over to Jord's parents annual block party BBQ. Complete with kid bike parade, contests, bake contest, BBQ in the street potluck. Lei didn't like the fireworks and sat wrapped in a blanket on either mine or grandma's lap occasionally hiding under the covers. She wouldn't even hold a sparkler. BUT she was all about launching bottle rockets! See below picture. One of the neighbors gave her their kid's old scooter which she LOVED. And of course the Duey saga continues as he was dressed up for the parade as well with her in the wagon.
