WISH UPON A STARR

Here are the excited kids, anxiously waiting for the parade to start. We wanted to get into the holiday this year. The night before, at grandma's house, all us girls painted our toenails and fingernails with red, white, and blue. Matthew so badly wanted his painted, I told him only girls could. So, instead of toenails, we colored his hair. He wasn't too sure if he liked it at first, but once everyone else wanted their hair spray colored too, he thought it was pretty great!! We also got 4th of July tattoos for their cheeks. I loved it all!!

The parade was fun. We sat in front of grandpa's shop, comes in very handy for situations like this!! For the crowd that sat in this area, a good chunk of it were fellow Maeser3rd-ians. So, we had good company all around us. The jets were back, however I missed getting a picture because I was too busy hiding my camera from the kid with the water gun on the float. But it was amazing, absolutely amazing. Words can not describe the feelings when they flew over. WOW! I'm just so glad they brought them back!

These horses were also pretty amazing. I picked the picture with the man in it so you could see just how big they were. There was a total of 6, all black and big and powerful looking. It was impressive. I loved these horses!!

I think the 4th of July is turning into one of my favorite holidays!!
