Old Fashioned 4th of July



We rode the train over and over again, but still didn't get enough!


Kordale had a turn at trying to be a vampire, but the teeth were just to big.


The girls ran their hardest trying to run the foot races and got a reward of getting their faces painted.
Kordale's reward for enduring the day was a nice cold ice cream cone! YUM!!
We stood out in the rain to watch the parade go by and it was almost like halloween with all the candy they collected.
Morgan showed off her patriotism with flags and was the hit of the parade. Everyone continually said, "look how cute that little girl is!"
Kordale got tired of watching the cars and floats go by and finally closed his eyes just in time for us to get in the train and be part of the parade.

We even had an 'Edward, Bella and Alice' sighting. Afterall, this is Forks!

The marching band was in the form of an orchestra and they weren't marching but hitching a ride on a trailer (string instruments were in the back of the truck undercover, since it was raining)
Chad got to be the train engineer for the parade and snaked us down highway 101 while we threw candy out the back.
