This year we thought we'd try something new and went to a local seaport town called Bath to watch their parade. It was on the lame side-Idaho sure knows how to celebrate the 4th better than Maine! But Brady had fun picking up candy and waving his little flag. We were also nicely co-ordinated; chris wore blue, Brady wore white and "olivia" and I wore a red and white top. But of course none of our pictures of us came out good (you know, double-chins, blinking etc.) so you'll have to take my word for it that we were looking mighty fine!!!
Here are some of the better parade participants:
This guy's name is "Oakie" and he's the mascott for a local milk company here in Maine called Oakhurst Dairy. He's cute, right?!
The Boat "parade" This here is one of the small tug boats.
The Boston Red Sox boat!
After the parade we walked around for a little bit, ate some fried dough and then headed home for a few hours. Later in the evening we headed into Freeport, the nearest town to where we live, also home to L.L. Bean and enjoyed a concert in the park followed by fireworks.
The concert was by Toby Lightman, an up and coming pop rock singer who is much like Colbie Caillat. We really liked her mellow music and she has a great voice! These pictures are from the web as are the fireworks because ours definately weren't THIS cool!!! Hope you all had a great 4th of July celebrating our countries freedoms!

We got rained on over here, so we drove around and still were able to see some fireworks, then went grocery shopping for an hour! HAPPY 4Th!!!
