So, we had a great holiday weekend... parades, impromptu bbq, a little rest, ice cream galore.. just fun times.
I had Friday off (woo hoo!), so Ty & I took the boys down to Penn's Landing for the annual All You Can Eat ice cream fundraiser. It was so hot and there were soooooo many people! This is the 9th or 10th year they're doing this, and this is the most people I've ever seen there. It is for a good cause, so I didn't mind the wait. Well, we get in there and I am in ice cream heaven! Y'all know I have a sweet tooth... I almost fell out from all the ice cream I ate. I tried a few flavors of water ice (I'm not the biggest water ice fan though), I had my fave, Haagen Dasz strawberry.. I also had chocolate, cookies and cream, this strawberry lemonade popcicle thing, vanilla, more cookies and cream.. YUM!!!

It was hot as blazes out, but we were just getting started!!
On the 4th, we set up our chairs to watch the town parade. Did I mention that it starts in front of our house?? Yep, it does! So the boys get to watch them line up the fire trucks and the bands and all the other revelers. We've also gotten used to our town "neighbors"setting up their chairs in front of our house as well.. *neighborly side eye*The firemen are always so nice and let the boys sit inside the trucks. They just LOVE it!! I can't blame them - I secretly wish they'd let Mom in one of those trucks! Ha Ha
After all those festivities, we actually found some time to rest. Mom was pooped!!! (but in a good way) I had to get ready for our next series of adventures - might we actually make it to the beach this year??? One can hope!!!
