red, white, and blue.

what a wonderful fourth of july! we had such a special day as a family. we went to the parade in downtown lincoln and it was super cute! kyri loved waiving her two flags and saying "hi" to the horsies. she was too adorable in red, white, and blue...especially her red-painted toenails! after the parade, we picked up uncle andy and went out to lunch. kyri went pee-pee in the potty in her first public place! i was so proud of my big girl. it is so nice to not worry about diapers anymore. every time she went potty yesterday, she was so excited and had to show everyone! uncle andy came over after lunch and we played mario cart on the wii. for dinner, we had grilled hot dogs, baked beans, and berry fruit salad. for dessert, i made home-made ice-cream sandwiches...which were delicious! i'm pretty sure kyri loved every single bite of hers. we ended our delightful day with the lincoln fireworks. they are amazing every year! kyri was scared when they started and just wanted her daddy. by the end, we were all sad they were over. this fourth of july really was...just perfect.
