On our annual 4th of July march down the driveway, Jonah is chosen as the official flag bearer. With only one slight mishap (the top of the flag coming off the pole) the flag made it safely down my mom's long driveway all the while swaying to the loud patriotic music blaring from the stereo.
Keeping with tradition we gather under the flag, recite the pledge and think thankful for our country thoughts. 
As it turns out our family is the only middle of the day activity attendees, well, also my sister Julie and brother Jonathan. So we rolled out the huge 75 foot slip n'slide and went a'slidin'. 
A group effort is needed to get John moving for the slip n'slide wheelbarrow push.
My mom and John are working on a patriotic puzzle. It's a puzzle on the Presidents of the United States.... so informational. 
Before the sparklers and fountain fireworks we gathered to watch some snakes grow. Katie John holds a sign that Aunt Julie made, it seemed to fit our activity well. What fun!
