We had a wonderful 4th of July celebrating this great country in which we live. The day began with the Ventura Push 'em Pull 'em Parade. This has become one of our family traditions, and the kids love it as they are able to be in the parade!
Shane, sporting the Superman shirt (he claimed it was his only red or blue shirt!), rode through the parade in the wagon. Faith ended up walking most of the way, picking up some of the candy that other kids were throwing out!
After the parade, we went to a church BBQ. There were many activities for the kids - a bike parade, face painting, three-legged race - along with great food! A very fun way to spend the afternoon.
Here Faith is participating in the sack race. She did not fair so well in the three-legged race as she and her partner were the two youngest participants!
The day of celebration ended with friends coming over to our house to watch the local fireworks and enjoy a post-firework bonfire in the upper part of our yard. It was a fun day filled with family and friends.
