Celebrating the 4th!!!

We had a really wonderful weekend,
so special,
in so many ways.
 
On Friday, my niece's neighborhood had a small parade,
for the neighborhood children.
 
 Here's my Addie







 It was a tiny parade...but the neighborhood spirit was wonderful.

 Addie, in her red, white and blue...

 she will be 2 this month.

 Lorelei...is 7 weeks old.

Sisterly love!!

My sister Kathy is here visiting, with her daughter Sarah.
My favorite aunt is visiting from
Long Island and we have lots of really fun stuff planned.
More on that tomorrow!!

AAAAAAAH! A & L are so darn cute I am (virtually) running around the bedroom shouting! Kids at that age are so natural and unselfconscious. I LOVE that about them.
And boy, whatta parade!

Have a BLAST with la famiglia, but remember, don't OVERdo.
