The 4th of July has always been my favorite holiday. I love the history of our country. That a group of people got together and stood up for their rights and their freedom and won the rights that we enjoy today. With all the horrible things that go on in this world, I love to remember the good. I am so overwhelmed by all the good I saw. The people who waved out and shouted out Coltons name. By the woman on the side of the road who signed to us that she was so happy for our family. By the people who handed us money with well wishes. By the friends and family who stayed for hours in the rain and the sun. Who walked the long parade and carried cupcakes and cookies around the festival. The people who came to our booth and payed $20.00 for a single cookie. The 4th of July will always be a symbol of our freedom and for our family a reminder of all the wonderful people out there who give so much to help others.
Our crew getting ready to head out on the parade.
Colton didn't quite know what to think of the whole thing. He just wanted the candy that we were throwing out. But Hunter, Chase and Logan had so much fun throwing candy and waving to their friends in the parade.
The booth had so much stuff for sale. Most of it donated. I am so grateful for all those who worked so hard to make this happen.
