Happy Fourth of July!

We started out the Fourth of July again this year with the Provo Freedom Festival Parade! This year we were smart and sat on the east side of the street (less sun in our eyes)!

Brittany had taken some time and fixed the girls' hair really cute. Mabel seemed to like her new do!

 Clementine even had enough hair for a little tiny pony tail!

It was so fun taking pictures of the girls while we waited for the parade to start! I especially liked Clementine in my hat!

 John taught Mabel to wave at everyone, which made the parade even more fun. She even got a few high fives from the participants!

Mabel especially loved the marching band music. That gave her a chance to break out some moves!

There were lots of great floats, including this trip to Mexico!

We met the Nuttalls for lunch at El Mexsal! They have Mexican and Salvadoran food. The pupusas are really good!

We stopped by the Freedom Festival for a while, but it was super hot outside!

 Mabel got a kiss from a llama which both terrified her and thrilled her at the same time!

In the late afternoon we did a few fireworks, including some sparklers.

Mabel remembered them from last year and was still very careful with them!

We all got into the act with the sparklers!

Clementine was happy to be cuddled while she watched the show. Thank heavens she was content to keep a respectful distance from the fireworks!
