Let Freedom Ring!


(What she's thinking): Do I have to wear this getup? So much for celebrating my freedom.

Maddie didn't love the idea of waving a flame on a stick.

Outfit #1

Outfit #2

And the grand finale: Outfit #3 . . . who needs fireworks anyway?


She can smile for a picture - whadayaknow?!? Maybe the trick is having her daddy hold her. That must be it. This year for the fourth we went to a parade in Centerville in the morning, then to a BBQ and fireworks at Scott and Suzanne's place at night. Nate and Chelsea's family, Lisa and her kids, Brett Bushman's family, and Steve and Ali's family were all there for the show. Arden hated the idea of loud noises and flashing lights. At least we know she won't be begging for a trip to Disneyland anytime soon. Oh, and of course, we had to fit all her fourth of the July outfits in, so you'll notice some wardrobe changes in the pics. What a life huh!
