Lenexa Parade

Christopher attended his very first parade today as our town celebrated Lenexa Community Days with an Independence Day parade through the "downtown." It was a beautiful day for a parade, although a little hot. Chris waved to all the floats and marchers as they passed by and really enjoyed the "Louie Louie Band," a hometown favorite! A holiday celebration would not be complete without the Eakin family, who joined us to watch the parade. What made the day especially cool was that our spot along the parade route was exactly ten feet away from the freight train line and we saw two huge trains go by while we were there! Needless to say, Chris was ecstatic. He could actually see the conductor waving to him. Chris really like the fire trucks and the Corvettes that revved their engines. We could have done without all the political soliciting, however. CJ proudly told them that he is an independent voter and will not be swayed by the candy they were handing out. Here are some pics from the rest of the day:


And here are my wonderful boys... Daddy, behave yourself!
