You really cannot beat a 4th of July celebration like
Old Granbury does each year!
The town square parade is always FULL of floats and the square is FULL of tents, food, and shopping and games.
This year it was very hot (and frankly a little miserable for Momma and Daddy), but Braylin was really excited for the parade and didn't mind the heat so we waited. And waited. And waited in the hot July heat for the parade to start down the street.
If you asked Braylin, it was worth every minute of waiting!
She LOVED it and loved chasing for candy in the street.
She loved waiving at all the cute characters that marched by us.
And of course she especially loves when the posse of horses trotted by! It's all very exciting for a 3 year old.

| She kept getting up to look. "Momma, is it coming yet??" "Now is it coming?" "Momma, I want to see the "harade"" |
 |
| Sweet Daddy got her some ice cream to cool her off and help pass the time! WHERE IS THE PARADE????? |
 |
| I offered to leave early because it was sooooo hot. But she insisted on staying. Sweet girl waited patiently. And she KNEW what she wanted to see... the horses, the lion, and the firetrucks! She KNEW it would be worth it. Patience is a virtue. |
 |
| "Momma!!!! Here comes the "harade!" The look on her face was priceless! Wish there was a rewind button and I'd play it, record it, and press repeat. Oh, the tiny blessings... |
 |
| ALL SMILES NOW! There is the Lion she waited for! Look at her sweet lil waive! Firetruck!!! And checkout the HUGE HEB shopping basket! |
 |
| Her little outfit caught LOTS of attention! The local veterans museum even snapped a picture of her to post on their website. |
What a fun and blessed day!
