Summer Adventures- Fourth of July Weekend

Fourth of July weekend we spent up in Maine at Grammi and Dziadzia's house.  We had a lot of fun.  Daddy had to work on Thursday so mommy and I drove up with Grammi and Dziadzia and daddy drove up after work.  On Thursday, while daddy was stuck inside at work, mommy and I spent the day on the boat.  As you can probably tell from my expression, I can't wait to learn to swim so I don't have to wear a life jacket anymore!  But, I know that in order to be a part of the action I have to do what mommy and daddy ask of me.  









The next day was the Fourth of July.  This was officially my first Fourth of July celebration.  There was a parade on Grammi and Dziadzia's street that I got to watch.  I loved watching all the people and decorations go by.














Here is a picture of Grammi watching the parade with me.  

















One of the neighbors on the street has a party after the parade is over.  They serve slush for the kids and mudslides for the adults.  Mimi and Papa even had a mudslide!  As you can tell from my expression in the picture, I really wanted a sip.  It looked so good.  Maybe in 20 years or so!







The rest of the weekend was spent playing in the water, eating lots of good food and spending time with all sorts of people.  Uncle Mike and Aunt Carolyn were also up in Maine.  Carolyn's parents made the trip from Oklahoma to visit all of us in Maine.  What a fun weekend!
