St. Charles 4th of July parade

For 4th of July we took the kids down to see the St. Charles parade. Andrew was so excited to get his "cannies"! We met my mother and father in law and sister in law down there. The kids all loved watching the parade and getting lots of candies. Here is a few pictures. I also was told I had to take a picture of some of their favorite floats so those are on here as well.

Here is a picture of all the kids, Chris, my in-laws, and Chris' grandma.

Here is a picture of all the kids. We had 6 kids all under 5 years old! Thats always and interesting challenge! But they all had so much fun!

Here is Adriana and Andrew watching the floats come down the street.
Here is my niece, Angeline, watching the parade. I have to admire her cute outfit she is wearing (it was Adriana's when she was a baby!)

Here is my nephew, Mikey, watching the parade.

Alright so here is the kids choice winners on the floats. They loved the dog float and cracked up laughing at the "walking dog".

Of couse a birthday cake is always a favorite. But they did ask why they weren't giving out any cake.
And here is another birthday cake! Happy Birthday USA!
And Daddy has to get a picture of his favorite! The jeeps were climbing all over each other. He took the picture too late and the back two jeeps were already down but they had been on the rear tires of the middle jeep.

Thats it for the parade, but the belly aches from eating all the candy last all night!!!!!!hehehe
