July 4th in Wilmore

I thought you might enjoy some picts from Wilmore's July 4th parade! We're proud of our little town, and wouldn't miss this parade if we could (especially since we have the distinct privelege of living right across the street from the point where the parade participants line up -- so we get to see first what each year's parade will bring!). I'm sorry I didn't have my camera out in time to catch the lawn mower brigade. The steady rain did keep away most of the classic cars and all of the politicians so the parade was decidedly shorter this year. Ellie wasn't content to sit under the dry confines of our porch, so her dad graciously agreed to set up a little viewing station closer to the street. The result of sitting up close was a huge pile of sticky, wet candy. We were glad to have our friends Kristen and Viktor join us for the parade and cinnamon rolls when the parade concluded. They just moved to Wilmore about 6 weeks ago and we told them they couldn't miss great introduction to our community! Enjoy the photos below!






Notice Ellie's pile of candy on the table (the size of a dinner plate)

Happy Belated 4th July...looked a rather wet one for you guys. We enjoyed a firework display from the American Club which is around the corner from our house. It is great to live in an international "family" (MAF) and enjoy everyone else's holidays too :)
