Six days ago was the 4th of July, and our new neighborhood, Deer Hollow, had a parade, where all of the kids (and a few adults) went around the neighborhood. The day before the parade, Eleanor & I decorated our bikes with our friends Raegan & Talynn.
The day of the parade (July 3rd), all of my friends went to Talynn & Raegan’s house to wait for the parade to start & do a few last-minute touch-ups to our bikes. Mom & Elsa sat outside to watch the parade (Elsa was very hot).
After the parade, Eleanor & I got lunch from the food truck at the parade & had a picnic in our garage with some of our friends. It was a really fun parade!
On the actual 4th of July, Mom & Dad painted Eleanor’s room! She chose a light blue for the walls and a purple for her nook. I think the colors complement each other really well.
Eleanor & I also got to swim in our neighbor’s pool. It’s an above-ground pool that’s like, 5 feet tall. They just got it 2 weeks ago, and that was my second time swimming in it (it was Eleanor’s first).For dinner we had bratwursts and for dessert, Mom made brownies with icing, strawberries, and blueberries. They were really rich, and really good.
After dinner we played Euchre, which Dad & Eleanor won by one point. Everyone says that I’d be a better player if I didn’t always call on nines, but it’s more exciting that way. A lot of people let off fireworks, so we went out to the front yard to watch them. It was a really fun 4th of July!
