I love the 4th of July! Maybe it's because I love summertime, being outside eating & playing with family & friends, and of course planning a cute holiday outfit for my girl! ;)
We went to Abilene for the long weekend. There is a great neighborhood parade in my parents neighborhood that has been going on since I was in High School. I was so excited for Emma's first year in the parade. Her cousins were quite excited as well & even got the wagon all decorated for her & Will to ride in!
We took LOTS of pictures throughout the weekend...here are just a few! :)
Emma, Owen & I before the parade on Saturday morning.

Emma & Will in the wagon. Emma was so good & busy taking in EVERY detail. She loved watching all the people, balloons & action!
They looked so cute, they even caught the eye of the Abilene Reporter News photographer who was covering the event. Here it is online.
Owen sitting proud on his new bike. {Sorry about the eyes, but just look at that precious smile!}
Sweet Clay excited & waiting patiently for the action to start.

I love my sweet little sparkler!
We always have to get some cousin pictures!!
Clay is so sweet with Emma. He is so good about getting on her level & talking to her. She LOVES her cousins & loves to give them BIG kisses! And they are so sweet to take them, even when they are a little slobbery! :)
Saturday evening we had lots of family & some friends over for a big 4th of July dinner. There was LOTS of yummy food & thankfully the rain held of just long enough for the kids to get a little bit of swimming in! As soon as we gathered to say the pray for dinner, the rain came!
Sunday we enjoyed church & MORE good food at Perini Ranch. 
Sunday night, Mom & Dad kept Emma so David & I could go on a date! It was so nice to be out with my hubby. We went to see Grown Ups...it was really funny!Thanks, Mom & Dad for babysitting & for the fun weekend!

Okay, so JK totally has the same denim dress for next year! Ha! I love it! We are too much alike. :) Anyhow, great pictures, as always. And what a fun little ride in the wagon. I think that is so neat that the Hillcrest neighborhood does that. I just love it! Glad yall had a great weekend in town. Parade, BBQ, Perini's, Movie night? What more could ya ask for!? ;)
I love that Emma is famous in Abilene! I mean, everyone knows that once a person has made the Abilene Reporter-News, Hollywood should be calling soon! :) You never cease to dress yourself and that precious baby girl in fabulous and oh-so-schnazzy outfits. The red, white, and blue headband looks like an 'Ashley Snow orginal'. Glad you, David, and Miss Priss got to enjoy a fun fourth! I also LOVE the denim dress. May I please hire you to come and dress my children whenever they might come along??? :)
