At the Waxhaw 4th of July Parade! Great family fun!!!

The Shaw's had a fun filled day for the 4th!

Just a few more great reason’s we live in Marvin! We started the day by getting a bite to eat at Di-Dee’ diner, great local restaurants were we pilled on the morning energy with some grits, eggs, and pancakes. Later we drove over to the Waxhaw 4th of July Parade! We brought along one of the kids friends, Logan. The kids made out like bandits with all the candy. There were clowns on unicycles, the Shriner’s on go-carts, music, big trucks, fire trucks mascots, a marching band, and a whole host of floats. We meet some folks from the neighborhood and watched the parade from their spot. They got a great spot to watch the parade. They had parked there at 5 in the morning to get that spot. I had no idea folks were lining up that early. Sounded a lot like black Friday shopping. :)

Pool Jubilee! As the truck stopped in the driveway, the kids darted for their swim trunks and off to the pool we went. There were a lot of people there this week. I lot of family and friends in town. We meet everyone; Culpult’s, Bill and Joanne, Don and Muara, McDermont’s, and everyone else! It was a fun filled pool. We had some much play throwing the football around, hitting the slide to se who went the fastest, and watching the kids play with their friends. And Jenni is really swimming well on her own. Kris and I are really impressed with how far along she has come We have to keep reminding ourselves, she’s only 4!

Fireworks!

Amazing day, climaxing at the peak of our super charged day! We had a few black cats throughout the day, but the big event started around 9. That sun stuck hung slowly in the sky. The sparklers were every lasting. I must have lit a thousand of those things. But as the sun gave way to the night, we started the big works. We did great this year, only to make next year even better. And, we weren’t the only ones. The community had a great 4th! I would say there wasn’t a bad sit in the neighborhood as fireworks were being lit all over the place, including our own!
