I was so happy that I got to keep my annual tradition of attending the Bird Rock 4th of July parade. It was another great year! I brought my daughter, some of her friends and our dog Nugget. Nugget and I were immediately ditched by the girls but were happy to run into neighborhood friends. I even got my annual picture with Captain America. At the end of the parade there is always a big party with a band, free hot dogs and baked goods, the Kona Ice truck and games. After we all came back to the house and swam all day. By the time fireworks came we were too tired to climb up on the roof as planned so we just watched from our driveway. Hope you had an amazing 4th!
