4th of July ( Part 1 )

Saturday Excursion with Grandad

What does one have to do with the other? Well, we sneaked in a mini excursion with Grandad - around the block, over to church for the 4th of July neighborhood parade. I know, we got off easy this week :)

Oh, and while we're at it, let's trespass onto some unknowing stranger's front yard and play with their mulch!

To be fair, I did catch glimpses of the parade, and there were always pictures from the Dad Cam, as well as in the paper :)

Happy 4th of July, y'all.

Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
