Fun Times

To celebrate July 4th, we took the girls to the Tumwater July 4th parade.  It's a "hometown" parade, so the floats/ entries aren't that exciting, but the girls seemed to like it . . . other than the loud cars/sirens/etc. that Amelia does NOT love.
It was so cute watching the girls wave at everyone that went by.  Sophia loved the horses.
And Amelia thought the school bus was pretty cool - she really is excited for school to start.
On July 3, we took the girls to the Lacey fireworks show - the girls loved it.  They also loved lighting small fireworks in their own driveway on the 4th.  They've got a handful of snaps and are ready for things to get exciting.
Yesterday I took the girls to the Lacey Library for Princess Story time - stories read by the Lakefair Royalty.  They were a bit shy at first, but they soon warmed up to the princesses and were excited that they even got to make paper crowns with the princesses.
And there were so few kids there, that they each got a "glittery" crown and got to have their picture taken with all the royalty.  It's hard to see Sophia's excitement, but she couldn't stop talking about how she got to sit on one of their laps.  I love fun, free events that I can take the girls to.

How fun! Free and fun is the perfect combination. And when it's not crowded it's even better!
