Sparkly

Starting July 5th and every morning since, Finnegan has awakened asking to go to a parade. That pretty much sums up the excitement he experienced on the Fourth of July. Second only to the parade were sparklers, fireworks (particularly the blue and purple), and popsicles. Lots of popsicles. My birthday followed two days later, and while hiking and opening presents were fun, I think Finn would have prefered another parade.

Finn's greeting: "Good morning and Happy July!"

Peanut butter chocolate cake, and this cutie by my side. What a perfect way to celebrate.
