Happy Fourth!

Happy Fourth of July, everybody! And happy birthday to my mother-in-law, aka Grandma!

I grew up in the country ... the country, country ... as in, you can't see another house from ours or hear cars on the highway. And Biscuit loves it there.

He especially loves to be there on July Fourth because he gets to be in a parade.

The parade has been an annual event for forever. It's in this small unincorporated community and is made up mostly of farm equipment, horses, hay wagons as "floats" and maybe a few cars.

My brother rides his four-wheeler and lets Biscuit ride with him.

Biscuit loves American flag-related stuff all the time, but on the Fourth of July, he wants to be head-to-toe patriotic. He wore red shorts with a white T-shirt that had a smiley emoji wearing flag sunglasses. He also had flag sunglasses, as well as a flag hat. And last but not least, he carried a mini flag so he could wave it at all the people.

He said he had a good time and waved at everybody he could see.

Dressed and ready to go.

Riding down to get lined up.

Mama and Daddy sat near the end of the route so when Biscuit was done riding, he could stand and watch the rest of the parade come by. Where he's standing, it looks like he's the only one there.
