Labor Day Festivities

We went to the local Labor day parade on Labor day. Aliyah was really excited to go although she spent half the parade hiding behind daddy's chair. She is terrified of anyone dressed up in any kind of funky costume. If she saw something she didn't like, she ran behind Daddy until they passed us. She still had fun collecting all the candy.

I forgot my camera and didn't even realize until we had gotten to the parade. Thankfully, I carry Daddy's point and shoot camera in the diaper bag. I actually enjoyed taking pictures with it b/c I didn't have to worry about constantly changing settings. I have to remember to take that stupid printed date thing off though...I HATE that printed on the pictures. I was able to get rid of it in some of these pictures but not all of them...I'm too lazy.

Waiting patiently for the parade to start.


A very rare photo. I couldn't tell you the last picture that we had taken with just the 2 of us.


My niece, Jadyn with her Mommy. Jadyn didn't like the sirens (although they were still pretty far away at this point ;)


Aliyah doesn't like the sirens either.


Another rare photo...Mommy and Kinsley. It's usually Daddy with the girls. I think my sister took this one.


This is what Kinsley did almost the entire parade...sleeping on Great Granny's shoulder. She woke up right after it was over.


Jadyn and Logan just loved Kinsley. I was holding Kinsley and Jadyn was trying to play with her and talk to her so I asked her if she wanted to hold her. She didn't really get to hold her when they came over for lunch b/c Kinsley slept almost the entire time they were here.




After the parade, we all went to a big park to have lunch. The kids got to play before we had to say good-bye to Logan and Jadyn. It was extremely hot but they still had a blast playing.
