Happy 4th of July!!! What a great holiday--I am so grateful for our country and all of the people who have fought for our freedoms throughout our history. Today I got to celebrate our history by participating in the Village of Jerome (part of Springfield) annual 4th of July parade with everyone from the museum. Here I am in the Jeep with Glen, a Korean War veteran and a really neat person. And my boss Bill showed up just in time to "photobomb" our picture :)

Here is the view of the parade from the Jeep. The Jerome parade is really small and short--it only lasted about 30 minutes--but that was okay because it was SO HOT outside! And it just keeps getting hotter. Greg and I thought about doing some stuff today, like going to a Springfield Sliders game or going to see fireworks, but it's just too hot to do anything. So we have spent the day relaxing, watching movies, and we'll grill some steaks and eat ice cream tonight--sounds like a good day to me.

Here's a picture from our fun mini birthday party with our friends Rose and Chris on Sunday night--sorry that we didn't get a picture with Rose and Chris! We ate the delicious giant cupcake that Greg made, and we enjoyed our homemade blackberry ice cream too. We are so happy to have Rose and Chris living in Springfield again!

And here is Tiger Lily in her new favorite place: her pirate ship! We've had the pirate ship for a while, and she had pretty much lost interest in it, but we moved it up onto the piano bench, and now she just loves sitting and sleeping in there. She is seriously in her ship all the time now. She is so funny.
