Julie's 4th of July Parade

Pauline, Brent & Julie came over Thursday evening. Linda fixed breakfast for us this morning and after a while we went outside. Pauline was pulling Julie around the house in the little red wagon and resting by sitting in the swing on the back porch. Julie was also playing on the back porch in between rides in the wagon.
  
   
We were having a little bit of rain, but it was only a slight drizzle, so we decided to go to Burkesville for the 4th of July Bike Parade. We also decided to take the little red wagon and let Julie ride in the parade. We loaded into the pickup truck and headed to town. I picked a place to park on the Courthouse Square and let Pauline, Brent, Julie and Stacey walk a short distance to the bank parking lot to join the parade. Right about noon, Stevie Wheat drove the police car past the courthouse with lots of bikers behind the car. After the bikers came the smaller kids in the wagons and strollers.
   
   
   
After the kids made the trip to the park, our State Farm Insurance agent, Wade Flowers, drew names for free bikes. The kids that won the bikes are in the last picture. Julie's name wasn't drawn, so we left the park and went to eat before returning to the farm. We enjoyed the rest of the day riding the ATVs and Mule around the farm and playing with Julie.
