Let Freedom Ring

In my Photo-a-day Challenge, today's thing was fun. Easy, everything about the 4th in Linville is fun but how to do that in just one picture?! My camera wasn't working so there are not the usual amount of pictures to choose from. I still managed to take about 60 with my phone though!

Last year the parade was a little too much but this year she loved it and waving at everyone in it. 
Her cute waves did get rewarded with plenty of candy!

  Off to the games. I was a terrible partner this year and flat out dropped our egg - sorry Taylor!

Unfortunately Addie and Anne Rankin's nap schedules didn't coincide for joint pool time.

She wanted to do this, but thought twice about that once we were sitting at the top.

 

Big girl ate almost 2 whole hamburgers for dinner then followed that up with some ice cream.


 
Since we went directly to the inflatables & balloon artists, we didn't get our standard picture 
with Grandfather Mountain in the background. Boo!

 
Anytime there is happy sand time, it must be documented! Here she is making "cakes".

 

Tired little girl but she was having a ball and didn't want to miss a thing, including dancing and fireworks. She wasn't scared but she didn't care to watch the firework show.

(FYI - I went with this picture as my fun shot.)

Anne Rankin on the other hand seemed to be soothed right to sleep by the bright lights and bangs!

 
One fun surprise was running into Addie's old teacher, Starr. 
Turns out her family's house is right around the corner from Poppy. Small World!
