We did so many fun things leading up to the 4th of July this year. Elena was pumped when our neighborhood donut shop had red,white and blue star sprinkles on their donuts!! :)
We went to a pool party on the 3rd of July where Elena got her 1st taste of a pool slide. She was definitely a fan!
We went to our local little town parade for the first time. Elena had no idea what a parade was I now I think she thinks its just a fun way to get candy! Ha ha! She got to enjoy it with some neighbor friends of ours.
What she was most excited about the parade wasn't the candy but it was seeing Santa! Lol - I'm sure he was dying in that suit on this day - it was so hot!
After a quick break from the heat at home - (this prego mama was h.o.t!) we headed down to our local park for fun and games! This is always so fun and we have enjoyed it a couple other times as well click here and here if you want to see - it is amazing how little Miss E has changed!
Daddy would be proud - she really got into the football toss!
There was a water slide there so we finished up the park with letting her cool off!
After a 3 hour nap - thank goodness - (I needed one just as much if not more than her!) we headed down to buy some fireworks for her to shoot off that evening. She was excited!
Then we waited until it got dark and joined some neighbors for some firework fun!
Elena had fun playing and shooting off little fireworks but she ran from them all (even smoke bombs - lol) and covered her ears for everything! :)
Finally it was dark enough for the big ones!
I tried out the firework setting on my camera and got some awesome pics of Elena playing with sparklers! So cool!
I took a quick video to show you some of the mayhem that is our neighborhood on the 4th of July!
Happy 4th of July 2012!
