Red, White, & Blue Fun Day 2017

Happy Birthday America!
What a fun and special July 4th celebration with sweet friends and family!

 

 And because everyone LOVES a good comparison photo, here is ours from 2014-2017.

 My loves adorning their red, white, and blue!

We began our morning at the Red, White, and Blue down town McKinney Parade. It has become one of my favorite summer traditions and what a way to celebrate America's birthday!

 Happy Independence Day! Love the Zellners

 We absolutely love celebrating July 4th with our Ogle friends, Erin, Gigi, Eva Mae, and Richard, as we have the last few years. This year the weather was a perfect 81 degrees. We even had perfect seating away from the sun (until it moved:), by the courthouse, and right near the girls' stage.

 Oh how our little ladies loved to dance and perform on their big stage.

Prior to the parade, the girls danced while our littles enjoyed a morning of side walk chalk, 

 Gigi in her patriotic glasses.

 Liam LOVED playing with the side walk chalk.

snacks, and play work books. They enjoyed waving around their little flags and enjoy the many people and pets that walked by. It was a perfect coming together to celebrate our July 4th Independence Day holiday.

 

 Let the parade begin!

 

Picnic Dinner Party
After some relaxation time and a few good naps, we enjoyed a picnic and dinner party with our Ogle friends. From watermelon faces, outdoor play pals, princess dresses, and some absolutely mouth-watering food, our picnic dinner party was a blast and a perfect way to end our evening celebration together.

When you want to slide so badly but you also want to eat your watermelon. Sliding and watermelon eating for the next summer Olympic Games. Liam is winning!

Happy Independence Day!
We are so incredibly thankful for those who serve and for those who gave their last breath so that we may enjoy this day of celebration. Let Freedom Ring!
