Independence Day fun
















What could get better than a parade, a mud pit, and fireworks? Well, we also got to talk to Pvt. Daddy on the phone. The kids and adults loved the parade, but for different reasons. The kids got candy, water, and otterpops thrown to them, so they were thrilled. We were amazed at the difference between the parades here and what we would get back in So. Cal. People would never be allowed to throuw candy and stuff or squirt water guns and throw water balloons and the spectators. They would be afraid of law suits. But here, we had some spectators prepared to fight back. They had brought super soakers and buckets of water to reload to attack the would be attackers. (We want to do that next year). It was a blast.
