Happy Fourth of July!

We had such a fun day today! First we took Anna to her first Fourth of July parade. She was a little bit afraid of the loud sirens but otherwise loved it. Then we went to a small community fair where we let Anna choose a wooden toy from a local craftsman (she chose a helicopter) and went on her first big girl ride. We thought the ride might be a little scary for her since we couldn't come with her, but she absolutely loved it. She grinned the whole time and cried when it was over. Next we headed home for lunch. I attempted to make my first potato salad using the red, white and blue potatoes from our farm share and Anna and Bryan played with blocks. In the evening we went to a park where Anna (and Bryan) had a ball playing in the sand. What a fun day!

Of course Anna's new helicopter had to be included in the block fun.
