Celebrating the 4th

quick recap:
  • i am almost 3
  • i wear snorkel and breathing apparatus to swim underwater
  • i have a new house in northfield 
  • i know how to use words like competent
now that i have everyone caught up.....
mommy was fresh off of her coaching trip to maryland and daddy just left for connecticut to visit his college friends and it was the 4th of july.  aunt ellen invited us to breakfast before the parade and we jumped at the offer.  we headed to the northfield restaurant--note to anyone reading- avoid the northfield restaurant.

we hurried to our viewing spot. (cousin aiden makes a great partner in crime) 

living in northfield has, to this point, been pretty low key--the parade was no different.  1 firetruck and a whole bunch of kids on decorated bikes--that's it.  i waited anxiously for it to start, and before i knew it, the parade was over.   

after waiting, then watching, then following the parade to the community center, a nice cool snow cone did the trick to cool me off

off the kid's field!  first up, the slide.  we grabbed out sacks and headed to the top

then down we go!!!!!

next up was the underwater obstacle course--it only makes sense that it came in the form of a shark!

reach the pinnacle

now to finish it off!

this is a few years off, but cousin nolan had a turn!
