Happy Fourth Of July!
We had a busy day, starting with the 5k CAT Walk. It was a fundraiser for cancer awareness and treatment. Our second time participating, and we all had fun. Xander rode on my back, and Isaac kicked back in the jogger.
A little breakfast before the walk started. Everyone got white tee shirts, but the cancer survivors wore yellow. It was sad to see all the children participating, with yellow shirts. I mean great that they are survivors, but sad to think of what they, and their families, have gone through.
I walk in memory of my Grandpa Patrick, who died of cancer a few years ago, and my Grandma Mildred who died of cancer before I was born.
The kids got to play in a huge, bouncing dinosaur.
Then we went to watch the local parade. I was quite impressed with a new gay pride entry, advertising a support system for gay youth and young adults. Quite progressive for our little town!
Holly, and my three nephews were there. They were very good about helping Isaac score some candy! Thanks guys!
My brother Casey, and the little flower girl-to-be, Olivia.
The bride-to-be, Aundi, with Miss Olivia.

The nephews: Ivan
Eli and Oscar. Oscar was having a little trouble smiling, so Eli was helping him out.
Xander enjoyed a snow cone, which he soon after squeezed out of the cup and onto the ground.
