Fourth of July Photos

Our neighborhood has an annual 4th of July bike parade that goes from the elementry school to the neighborhood pool. All the kids decorate their bikes and ride smiling and waving to anyone who will look at them. It was a beautiful day and the boys all had a great time.Henry was so excited to be able to ride his bike this year!Clifton rode in the wagon. George thought it was a race rather than a parade and was one of the first people to the pool. There were popsicles at the pool for everyone.
Clifton was so excited to go swimming.
He loves to jump in from the side. It can be a little frightning because he has no fear and will jump even if there isn't anyone there to catch him.
