We spent our 4th of July like we have done for the past few years. We went up to the cabin on the 3rd . We had a great time as usual at the cabin. The girls couldn't get enough of the swing.

On the morning of the 4th, we were up bright and early. I had once again signed up to do the local Buena Vista race. I do it every year because the money goes to the local cross country team. Every year I ask myself why I signed up for it. It's so early and such a chore to get all the kids ready and into town in time. It is also a very hard course. It is anything but flat! While I was getting ready to run the race, Joey took the kids to the pancake breakfast.
After they ate, they headed toward Main Street to watch my cross the finish line. Definitely not my best time, but I finished!

 |
| So happy to be done!!!! |
After the race, we got spots and we waited for the parade to start. It gets very crowded, so we were happy to get a good spot.

As usual, the kids had a blast getting all the candy that was thrown out. They always end up with A LOT of candy. It is such a cute small town parade.

| We always get a shot of the kids on the tracks |

| Joey and Ruby hopped in too |
Some pictures that loaded out of order:

| The girls would swing all day if someone would push them |

| Playdoh time |
 |
| Love them so much! |
