A full 4th

We had a full celebration of the Independence Day weekend. We took Jeremiah to the parade in Rantoul on Friday morning. He liked picking up the candy and was OK with the loud truck sirens but didn't like it when they honked. He was also strangely freaked out by the Shriners zooming by in their little cars.


Then, the fun continued....

To playing in the pool

And then watching the fireworks with the Rademakers and Kuipers. He didn't seem to mind the noise but was tired.

And to Grant's Farm on Sunday (after a Peverly family reunion in St. Louis on Saturday).

We also celebrated Dad's birthday. Mom took this picture on Dad's first day of work at his new job.
