4th of July

What is the 4th of July without a small town parade!?  We live in the country, but when we go to "town" it is an adorable little town we affectionately call "Mayberry".
 

                                         I love our little town!


Anxiously waiting on the parade to start.


The man on the far end is the retired marine that gave the speech at Matthew's Eagle Scout ceremony.


The town got a new fire engine!  Not sure how I like the maroon. It just doesn't seem right for a fire engine not to be "fire engine red". :o)


Thanks to his brother-in-law he discovered that he could take the wrappers off the candy and EAT it!


Summer in the south requires lots of time spent in WATER!


                                                                 No FeAr!

  We sure are enjoying McKenzie being close enough to do things with us!


The 4th of July weekend we went to a party at our old pastor's home.  There were a lot of old friends that we dearly love there and it was great getting to see some of them!

    
                                                              Ice Cream!


                            Macheus was quite fond of this little flag.

A very special lady.  One of McKenzie's dearest friends.

Marc with our old friend/pastor.  This man has meant a lot to our entire family.  Thankful for so many teachings we learned under him.

The guys played hard!
