This is a little late but we had a great 4th of July weekend.  On Thursday night, Brad, Carter and I went to the Braves game.  We left Cammie with the grandparents because she would’ve hated the game.  Well, we thought Carter would love it but we were wrong!  An hour after we got there, we were leaving.  Luckily we had free tickets and parking so we didn’t lose much.  We decided to leave the game so we could go watch the fireworks by our house.

On Friday morning we went to the 4th of July Steam Engine Parade.  I wasn’t sure if it was going to be much fun but I was really surprised at how great it was.  The kids loved all the engines and the people throwing candy.  We got so much candy that it was like Halloween.  The kids had to wear ear plugs because the engines were SO loud.  We had a wonderful time and might have found our families 4th of July tradition!

That night we had a few friends over for a cookout and firework show.  It was a lot of fun!  Then on Saturday we went to the pool with the Wyatt’s.  It was a great weekend!!

Here is the link to my web album, there are videos from the parade posted on it:

    So Carter’s not a Braves fan yet?
    I’m sure he will become one as he lives longer in GA.
    Great pictures of the Cumming parade.
    Look forward to seeing you in Aug!
    Love ya,
    Pa and Ma
