4th of July

After having missed the 4th of July parade for the past two years, the kids were ecstatic to finally get to attend it this year!  G & G Hayes, Uncle Josh, and baby Lillie came over to go with us.  It was a HOT day.  But we got super lucky as snow cones and popsicles were being handed out to us left and right for FREE!  That was awesome and helped keep the parade a really fun experience.

Master Yoo's!  This is the place where Eli took some Tae Kwon Do.  Now we see them everywhere!

Wish we had given someone else the camera so David could get in the photo with us!  (He doesn't like to let others hold his 4th baby... ;)

You can tell Ezra was a little nervous by all the noise and movement around him since that thumb is in his mouth.

Clara was very sweet and thoughtful.  She would fan herself and then fan me and Ezra, too.  :)

This picture makes me laugh.  Clara was so funny to watch as she fanned herself.  :)

Beet-red cheeks, such a HOT day!

This Chinese dragon did a great job at terrifying Ezra!  It brought its head RIGHT UP to Ezra's face.  He burst into tears! 



Eli and David snuck off in the evening to go watch the fireworks at Grand Park.  They drove and parked across the street at another park and then rode their bikes into Grand Park to avoid the heavy traffic.  They loved it!

Thankful to live in our blessing-filled country!
