We had a great 4th of July hanging out with some new friends we made well we were in Winston, Amy and David. (Amy came over to the house at least once a week and had lunch with me. I think I would have gone insane if it was not for her visits.)
Our first stop of the day was to the local firehouse. They had hot dogs and activities for the kids. Derrick got to aim the firehouse at a "burning" house and put the fire out. They also were giving rides for the fire truck. Sadly well waiting in line, they got called to a FIRE or some other emergency and had to leave. It being the 4th I was not really surprised the fire truck had to leave!!
Our next stop was the parade were we had FRONT ROW SEATS!! Derrick and Riley got LOTS of candy. Derrick worked for it running to get it when ever it was thrown. Riley just like to be the recipient and sat on her chair the entire time eating whatever she was brought! Owen fell asleep half way though.
Amy and David "borrowed" Derrick to watch the fireworks at their house that night. Riley and I enjoyed them from the living room window. At least we tried, we did not have a very good view. Once again Owen missed out because he was sleeping!
