1st parade was in Boone. We rode in the VPC Builders truck and passed out candy
Pungo even joined in on the fun
Then afterward we went straight to the Blowing Rock Parade. I have to admit, the Blowing Rock parade was a lot more fun than the Boone parade. It's a bigger parade with more people and floats and you can throw candy. Ollie and I had so much fun throwing candy to everyone watching the parade. Blowing Rock usually has more interesting participants, like this guy...

On our way up to Main Street making sure we have enough candy

Gary Alan did a great job getting us through both parades! He's a very safe driver, thanks :-)!
My favorite little firecracker! He was such a trooper! He had a blast!
Off to our 4th of July cookout...our friend, Casey, who also used to be Ollie's preschool teacher has the best house to host a party. Since she has 2 kids of her own she is a master at having tons of kids activities set up. There was a playhouse, cornhole, a little inflatable trampoline, numerous toys and they even rigged up a piñata. All the kids were definitely entertained, leaving us parents to have a nice evening to socialize and relax.

No party is complete without cupcakes
Good food and good friends
Everyone getting ready to watch the fireworks
Happy 4th!
