Our Weekend- Fourth of July

This weekend we stayed pretty low key and had a great holiday weekend. We decided to head over to Southlake for their Independence Celebration on the 3rd and were not too sure what to expect, it was a much bigger deal than we had anticipated. We wish we would have gotten there a little earlier to take part in all the fun kid activities and listened to more of the bands. The fireworks show was fantastic and Claire loved it! Jacob was a trooper with the heat and stayed really happy and awake the whole time.

We had dinner at our favorite burger joint- Five Guys
I absolutely LOVE my two kiddos

Claire cannot get enough of her little brother
Check out those baby blues on our little man
The only space left to watch the fireworks was on the blazing hot sidewalk

As always Allan and Claire were full of energy. It was so fun watching them play together before the fireworks began.

It got a little hot for Jacob so he watched the fireworks in his skibbies

On the Fourth we wanted to go to a parade and were thrilled when we heard about one being held INDOORS. Claire and Allan had fun decorating our wagon. It was great to see some of our friends there as well and celebrate our great country. The rest of our day was spent napping, going to Saturday night church, eating apple pie with the neighbors, and watching our city fireworks show from the backyard. It was a good day.
