Blake was up to be at the church at 4:30 to flip pancakes for the pancake breakfast. He thinks he made about 400. At least he didn't have to do the dishes! RA and some other girls in her scout troop helped bus tables.
There is this great parade (an hour long) in the little town we live in. This year the girls, (RA, KJ, and yours truly) got to march with her scout troop. Ok, RA got to ride and so did KJ (Mommy pushed). RA did get to hand out candy for part of the route. The pancake breakfast and parade were on the third.
The next day we went to Nana and Blue Truck's for the real celebration. It is my dad's birthday (appropriate fireworks for the firecracker) and PG's feast day. It is the feast of Pier Giorgio Frassati (if you are not familiar check out: http://www.3op.org/frassati.phpWe had lots of fun with family. Then we stayed at Nana and Blue Trucks to watch the fireworks. Before they came we all played on the wii. Blake and I even played some golf. It rained -- that is Colorado for you but for sure by the time the fireworks start it would clear. It did clear but it must have been in the 50s by then. So we are all bundled up for the second year in a row. They were nice but the company was much better.
