We brought Decker's bike for him to ride in the parade around the church. There were tons of paraders --bikes, golf carts, wagons, big wheels, roller bladers, strollers, scooters. It was awesome!
Then we went back home to try our luck having a Garage Sale. We made $10.00. We started pretty late in the day and it was the Fourth of July. But it was real relaxing. Our friends, Heath, Nancy and Steve came over to help set up and pass the time and then we BBQ'd steaks. YUM! It was a very relaxing Fourth. We lit off a few fireworks in the front yard and Mike brought his cannon over and set it off a couple of times.
At about 9:00 we drove out to Monroe to watch the fireworks show outside the stadium. We found the perfect spot and parked. We laid on the hood of our car. The fireworks didn't start till after 10:00. But there was plenty of fireworks going on all around us. It was quite amazing. Cody loved watching the beautiful lights. Decker kept asking to get into the car.
I held Cody the whole time which I thouroughly enjoyed. He snuggled right into my chest and rested as he watched the fireworks. He stayed awake for the whole time and just snuggled. I hold him all the time to feed him, comfort him, etc, but it's not very often that this very busy little 9 month old will just let me hold him and snuggle, and for over an hour! I loved it. It was a perfect ending to our day.
