4TH OF JULY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

4th of July 1

Our house is decorated for Independence Day.  (Yes, we live in a plastic house.)

The 4th of July parade is about to begin.  (Yes, we begin celebrating the 4th of July in June.)

If that young man lights fireworks now, the parade may begin even earlier!

Coca-Cola’s entry is a train with patriotic gnomes riding in it.

I hope they will be throwing Hershey’s candy from the Hershey parade entry.  I’ll be the one standing close to the road with my mouth wide open!

There’s our cute little drum majorette, and two band member wannabes are following behind her.

Here comes our community band, all decked out in their colonial outfits.

I think it’s time to turn on the lights at the house.   (The Grizwolds do patriotic décor too.)

        You crack me up.
        And then, I finished all that cracking and started thinking.

        Hmmm.... I have a wonderful old doll house up in the attic just sitting there doing nothing at all.

        And as I said, Hmmmmmm....

        (I'm so out of it that I didn't even know there was such a party going on.)

        Laurie, I suspect your grands have fun with this. Is it interactive? Creative play is great for child development!!! ;-)

        I see that the link is open today. Is that a mistake or is this party open to others to add patriotic links?

        Fun party! Thanks for hosting……….Sarah

        Oh Laurie, how great! Love all your 4th of July decorations. You have so many wonderful items. Your grands must love coming over to your house and seeing all the fun things.
        I'm off to check out the rest of the posts.
        Have a great week.

        Oh boy, I didn't know about the 4th. of July party! I was away for 10 days too. Anyhow, I'm just into Father's Day 2014 still! I'm hosting a buffet this Sunday! I'm so inspired by all this anyway!
        Hugs,

        What a cute display and you've really got a storyline going here, Laurie! : ) If I put something like this out my granddaughter would have a field day.

        P.S. The Bowdabra people tell me they sent your package out last week. Did you get it?

        Hi Laurie, I just love your sweet neighborhood patriotic display. Wouldn't you love to be small and be in a little town like this?? Your grands have to love your display and the creativity you put into it.
        So much fun.
        Happy Wednesday.
        Hugs
