Happy Fourth of July & Happy Bday to Sonia!

Sonia & her new hard hat

Today is Sonia's birthday! So happy birthday girl! We also got the day off and it's wonderful to just relax and know you still have Saturday AND Sunday!! :) We went to see Hancock and I liked it because it was a fun movie and because I really like Will Smith. Even during his Fresh Prince of Bel Air days!! LOL. We did this early this morning so that we'd miss all the fuss and stuff on our street from all the parade festiviites and preparations. We've done enough of that in the past 10 years.

Things I noticed this year:
  1. There were not as many parade entries lined on our street as in the past.
  2. The stacks indicating where numbered floats are to line up were not in until about two days before the parade. In the past, I think we saw them about a week in advance.
  3. No horse poo on our street this year! :) But at the same time, no cool riders and horses on our street this year.
  4. No litter in our yard when we got home. Good!
I exchanged my Vera Bradley tote for a smaller Morgan bag. I LOVE it! It's perfect for me and I can still fit my digicam in there easily.

Mark got me two Vera Bradley bags for my bday!

Happy Fourth! I love the new bag.

We want to see Hancock, and I'll take your recommendation that it's worthwhile. Will Smith is very good!

God bless.

Cool bag Thien. Fits you perfectly.
Love Wil Smith too. I may have to see that movie too.
Didn't do any parades this year but had a great time at our son's for BBQ and neighborhood fireworks.
