We celebrated the 4th of July - LB style - but started off with the Mardi Gras Parade in Sioux City the night before. We went to the Bronson parade, did some sparklers at the house, and ended the night with fireworks!! The kids pointed and laughed at every one they saw as we laid in the grass - a memory I will cherish - their sweet and excited laughs - pointing each time and saying "mom look" :) Dad stayed in the car with Hazel so she didn't get scared by the noise and so she didn't get all bit up. A fun weekend at home :)
