I hope everyone had a wonderful 4
th of July. It was extra special for us since
Bryson got to celebrate it as an American citizen. We decided to go a parade they were having near our house. It lasted about 2 hours and from what I can tell,
Bryson enjoyed it although it was hot! We just couldn't make him understand that he couldn't walk down the street with everyone else in the parade. This was our first time attending this parade and I can't believe how much candy and beads they threw out. His wagon filled up quickly with both. He would wear the beads for a few minutes, then toss them in his wagon. A few minutes later, someone would walk by, see he had no beads on his neck and put some on him. After minutes, those would go in the wagon as well.

After the parade, we all came home and took a nap then we headed over to a friend's house to swim, eat and watch the fireworks. Of course,
Bryson loved the fireworks. The only problem was they were going off in so many different directions, he could decide which ones to watch.
Today we decided to head over to Cypress Gardens. It's an amusement park about an hour away that is 1/8 the size of Disney World. Besides that fact it was super hot, we had a good time.
Bryson was able to ride a few of the rides.

He is so cute with all of his beads!
Looks like you all had a lot of fun. I love the beads. A friend of mine, her girls think Uncle Sam is Santa and the candy is for Easter Eggs. They don't understand the whole parade thing for the 4th.
Glad you got to celebrate with your new US citizen.
I think that is funny that Bryson wanted to walk in the parade. The boy sure made out with all those beads!
I saw your comment about making a blog header. I don't have your email and it's not in your profile so email me at staylor602@hotmail.com so I can send you the info.
WOW... thats a lot of beads. Sounds like he was outsmarting the crowd by hiding his beads, so he could keep getting attention from new people with beads.. lol. Too cute! what and exciting day!
He looks like one of the Mardi Gras partiers! lol. Looks like you guys are always having fun and keeping busy. :)
You asked about us coming to Orlando. Unfortunately, we're not going to be moving there. :( It had my vote for weather alone!! But, we can't turn down the offer Frank received in Chicago. We are still planning to visit Orlando soon, though. Not sure on a date, but our family is planning a trip that we'll be tagging along on. I will let you know when I get the dates!
I love the beads and I love your braids!!
The park looks like tons of fun!
See ya in 18-days
