Festive 4th of July

We had a very eventful 4th of July. We are currently in Northern California visiting family. Hopefully we will see some friends too! It was a great day!

The first event was the Orinda 4th of July Parade. It is such a lovely town and the parade was as lovely as the town. Orinda is where Uncle Chip grew up so it was great to see him in the place he knows so well. The parade was full of local people and organizations. Not only was the environment full of happy people, there were dogs of plenty. Ezekiel was in heaven. Every person seemed to have a dog with them:) Ezekiel also got some treasures from the local police and firemen. Ezekiel loved looking at the old cars, but he wouldn't get in when offered! He never did wear his hat, but it seemed to make the rounds through the rest of us:)















What a great morning it was.

The rest of the day was spent hanging out and enjoying family. We did go see a fireworks show, but it was too late for Ezekiel and he slept through it without making a noise.

We had a great day- Daddy was dearly missed and we are counting down the days until he gets home:( Until then we will continue to stay busy with family!
