Waiting for the parade to start
Happy Fourth of July everyone! Here in Rutledge we have a lovely parade every year followed by fire truck rides and games in the park. This year we entered the “decorated stroller” division of the parade. Since Sam likes to stand in the back of the stroller, we decided to go with George Washington Crossing the Delaware. Sam made a great George! He even mastered George’s face. Maisie’s job was to row the boat. She wasn’t so sure about that and decided that she didn’t want to wear her hat, but all in all a fun time and we managed to win first place. We also had a lovely time at breakfast at our neighbor’s house where Sam and Maisie proudly showed off their costumes (and ate bagels).
Just before heading over to breakfast and the parade.

The happy first prize winner (before the red snow cone)!
This was a fantastic day, made all the better by the special wink and smile that the Sentivan family brings to life. Happy Independence Day, and congratulations on first place!
