Eeott & Papa's Farm - Part 2 - Independence Day!!!!! (P. 3)

    As Independence Day morning turned into afternoon, we returned to the farm for fellowship with Great Aunt Carol, Great Grandma Hansen, Cousins Phil, Joy, & little Sarah. We enjoyed our time together very much.....and again, I will say great memories were shared!

                     Later, while we waited for the firework show to start, my camera battery died. I don't have any firework pictures to describe the show , but all I can say was it was AWESOME!!!! It is the very best firework show Lillian, Sören, & I have ever watched. We kept thinking it was the Grand Finally, but it just went on and on-the show lasted 40 minutes!!!  

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

Eeott & Papa's Farm - Part 2 - Independence Day!!!!! (P. 2)

  At about 10:30 , Lillian , Auntie Sharon, & I ran down to the street where the parade was about to start. Sören didn't come with us because he chose to be in the parade on Eeott & Papa's church float. It was a wonderful parade!!! : )

Our finished float
There were about 6-7 Veterans , plus a few kids
Funny little old car! 
   






 Classic cars:

These cars below were my favorite-not only because of the style , but i like the honking sound!



I think Sören had fun on the float.....

Waving at us

Eeott & Papa's Farm - Part 2 - Independence Day!!!!! (P. 1)

      Independence Day dawned, and I had to hurry and get ready for the Yoncalla Parade. We had to leave early because Lillian, Sören, & I had to help get it ready. While Sören helped Papa line up all the classic cars, Auntie Sharon, Eeott, Lillian, & I decorated the Veterans Float. 
    
     What an AWESOME day to celebrate our country's 237th birthday!!!!!!!!


Getting started.....
Lillian is a happy US. citizen!
