july 4

we celebrated our 3rd Fourth of July here in snoqualmie.  i remember our first parade when both the kids rode in the stroller.  gavin was just a baby.  today they both rode their bikes in the parade, and they just seemed so big, so grown up.  the days pass quickly, but boy do the years fly by!

brooke isn't very confident on her bike outside of our driveway so there was a lot of whining going on during the parade.  gavin was just as confident as could be on his balance bike, but he was easily distracted by everything going on around him.  we had to keep reminding him to watch where he was going :)

we had a great time at the community celebration and stayed for the entire 3 hours.  the kids enjoyed bounce houses, horse rides, sno cones, cotton candy, popcorn and more!  what a great day to be a kid :)  we also tried out our first sparklers.  brooke loved them, gavin not so much.  sometimes they surprise me.
