Weird July Fourth

July 4th was weird this year.  I say that mainly because it fell on a Wednesday and no one seemed to know how to handle it.  Make it a FIVE day weekend?  Take off just Wednesday?  Take off the entire week?  And as a result, all the festivities were smaller than usual.  The pic above is from the Whispering Pines Fourth of July parade.  It was HORRIBLY hot.  Shawn and I did take the girls and drove them in the parade. All 12 cars.  And of course there was lots of candy to throw.  Gabby Wood, Beth Bazinet and Jenna.

After the parade, we had ice cream in the park, with most of the rest of the Whispering Pines residents that were in town.

Later that evening we went to the Harness Track over in Pinehurst and watched the fireworks.  No rain this year, so that was a good thing.  But the bad thing was everyone had to work the next day, so no one was celebrating too much or staying out too late....
