We woke up Forth of July Morning to COUSINS!
It was a dream come true.
Our awesome cousins from Virginia drove all night long to come and spend the weekend with us.
We couldn't be happier. That morning the kiddos ran through the house, meeting up with their counterparts.
LC found his buddy Seth...
Superkid found his fav, Will.
Abizella found her fav, Mia.
And poor Tadpole searched and searched before he came downstairs and found Brooke and asked,
"Where is my cousin?" Seriously Brooke! You totally missed one. But that's okay. These ladies kept Tad in the loop.
And he drowned his sorrows in blueberry buckle. Mmmmmm. Blueberry buckle!
It was a sweltering 4th of July. Temperatures in the 90s and super humid too! But not even that could keep us from the best small town parade ever. I say that with great experience in small town parades, but this was truly something. Minutemen, Red Coats, Antique fire trucks, marching bands, clowns, horses, drill teams, 2 bag pipe bands, boats with boy scouts with squirt guns, Masons in tuxedos and full robe and even a marching kazoo band. Something for everyone.
The little ladies and I put together a 4th of July feast while the parents rested from their full night drive.
They even made this festive flag cake! Look, 50 stars! Go girls!
After a BBQ that couldn't be beat, we headed to the beach to catch some waves and cool down.
Double trouble here.
It was fabulous to reconnect.
And enjoy a warm summer night together!
God bless the U.S.A.!
