This morning started off with a leftover breakfast consisting of pancakes, strawberries and bacon (the bacon was fresh Granny so don't be calling me). After we wiped our faces clean, freeing us from the stickiness that Aunt Jemima tends to leave after a morning of hot cakes we rushed out the door on our way to the 13th Annual Edina 4th of July parade. This parade is a 2 hour production and has to be the BEST parade in the Twin Cities Metro. The boys love the fire trucks, policeman, horses, clowns and of course the barrage of candy being tossed from the vehicles. Here a few photos I grabbed from our time in Edina this morning. Thank you to our troops that that lay down their lives everyday for our freedom. May we NEVER forget the men and women that have been laid to rest so that you and I can live the lives we choose for our families. Thank you!!! Enjoy your 4th and please be safe.

Peace,
Ben
