We have had a busy couple of weeks at the Praytor house so it's taken me that long to get to the computer to write about any of it. We celebrated the 4th of July with our families, starting with the Coppell 4th of July Parade. We were in it last year and really had so much fun. Truett, Jay and I rode in the truck while some friends volunteered to walk the route and pass out business cards and lollipops to the crowd. This year was a little different and with Truett being a year older (and a year more ACTIVE!), it was a little crazier this time around.
My parents, Jay's parents, my brother and his friends, and Jay's brother, sister-in-law and nephew all volunteered (well, said, "Yes" when we asked) :) to help out with the parade this year. Jay's dad drove his truck and Truett and I sat in the back seat waving our flags at everyone. Truett seemed to enjoy seeing all of the people and would shout out a loud, "Happy July!" as we drove along. Jay and everyone else walked in the parade, passing out suckers and business cards...thank GOD because this preggo was about to pass out riding in the AC truck! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO OUR FAMILIES!!!!
When the parade was over, we all went to the Praytors' for burgers and hot dogs. We ended the day with some swimming at my mom's house. Unfortunately, with all of the excitement of the day and the HEAT of the day, the only interaction we had with fireworks was hearing them from our bedroom as we were falling asleep! :)
