4th of July

Sophia and I packed up Saturday morning to head to the Hudson 4th of July parade. We were both pretty sad that Jared had to work and couldn't come. We got all the gear in the car and headed for Hudson. We arrived about 10 minutes before the parade began. I got stuck on Main St (the parade route) and couldn't turn off down any side streets because people were blocking every street! Finally, I was able to turn off and found an excellent parking spot only 2 blocks from where the family was sitting.
When Sophie and I walked up, we were shocked to find Daddy sitting with everyone! He surprised us and took a half-day off so he could be a part of Sophie's first Fourth. It was such a wonderful surprise!

Sophie was especially curious about the loud fire trucks.

Watching our first 4th parade as a family!

Sophia had loads of fun with the mini bottle of bubbles she got!
