I hope everyone had a safe and fun 4th! We went to our annual 4th of July Parade here in Marshfield in the morning. You really can't say you're a Marshfieldian if you don't go to the parade on the 4th! Scott went to Kentucky on Tuesday and brought his mom back for a visit. She hadn't seen our new house (which is now 3 years old!) and she had only seen Addysen once last year when we were driving back from Florida. It was a nice visit. She didn't get to see Jarika because she was in Springfield with my mom since she had to work everyday. Too much driving for that girl! I didn't want her on the highway during the holiday anyway! Avery loves gathering the candy! Addy enjoyed it and had fun sharing a popsicle! She didn't much care for the trucks blaring their horns but I don't like it either! Scott grilled steak for dinner and we had strawberry shortcake and blackberry cobbler for dessert, yum! We went to my friend, Lisa's, house to watch fireworks, it was so much fun. My friend Susan and her husband and kids were there too so it was nice hanging out with friends for the 4th! Addy wasn't too keen on the fireworks this year but she handled them very well! She just whined a little when they would whistle really loud! We usually go to my brother's and watch a big fireworks show in their town but due to budget cuts they didn't put on a show this year!
This is TJ, he is a hoot! I have known TJ and his family since he was in first grade. He is now 19 and works at McDonald's and is just an all around awesome kid. He had the lead in our school play The Jellybean Conspiracy, he was fantastic! He was also a featured speaker at our Buddy Walk a couple of weeks ago. You can tell how Addy feels about him, I have decided that children (and adults for that matter) just know others who have DS, Addy seems to adore them and she gravitates to them! It's so cute!
If you have ever watched Nashville Star, this is Justin David, he was on the first season I think. He came in second and he is a local boy! 
Happy 4th of July Everyone!

I wish Addy could share about half of her hair with Ava. That is so not fair!
