George: Mom's been decorating the barn again. Must be a holiday.
Lucy: You know this has trouble written all over it.
George: I don't mind. I'm proud to be an American.
Alan: Hooray for the red, white and blue...and green? Mom, I need a new halter.
Hank: Let's have a parade!
Lucy: I'll be Grand Marshal.
Lucy: Ok, boys, line up! Smallest to tallest. Hank, you're last. Alan, get over here!
Alan: Geez, she can be bossy sometimes.
Lucy: Hold on...let's watch the marching bands go by first.
Ok, get on up here, Alan.
Me: Good job! Just a few more blocks, then watermelon for everybody.
The one spectator lining the parade route was disappointed that no one was throwing out candy.
Lucy: You've had your fun, now where's my watermelon?
Me: I'll go get it right now. You just stand here and keep the folks at home entertained 'til I come back.
And please don't embarrass me by drooling. It's not your best look.

Rumor has it that the boys over at Morning Bray Farm are having their own little Fourth of July celebration.

ReplyDeleteHA!! Thanks 7MSN gang, this is the BEST parade I have seen in years :D (No near naked people in sight,ick)
ReplyDeleteLooks like everyone is ready for a party. Have a great 4th of July!
ReplyDeleteVery festive, very funny :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th to the whole 7MSN gang!
ReplyDeleteCarson, Happy 4th to you and the gang. Thanks for my first smile of the day.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th! Great parade. theresaEH, we don't know what "mom" was wearing. It is super hot there and she's in the middle of nowhere. Wouldn't blame her!
ReplyDeleteWill Rogers once said "We all can't be heros. Somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by!"
ReplyDeleteClapping from WI at your cute little parade. :)
now that is a great parade....
ReplyDeleteI'm telling ya, the things you do to keep us entertained. I can't believe they wore those flags as well as they did. You have outdone yourself.
ReplyDeleteYour critters certainly know how to celebrate the fourth. They are so patriotic.
ReplyDeleteBy total coincidence I have my first, and probably only donkey post ever. http://www.yogis-den.com/2011/07/open-range-shakespeare.html
Linda, you are so funny :) What a great way to start the 4th, that last picture of Lucy was a hoot. Have a good day and congrats on the rain.
ReplyDeleteThis is one red-white-blue- adorable celebration! Happy Fourth of July to one and all!
ReplyDeleteWell done! That last photo cracked me up. Happy Independence Day!
ReplyDeleteLoved the parade and the new header. Happy 4th to you and your crew.
ReplyDeleteThis is probably the best parade I've ever seen...even though there were no floats! :) We finally had rain last night too! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteVery cute. Everyone loves a parade!
ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day to the 7MSN gang!! I loved the parade and now I want watermelon too. The gang was so cooperative with carrying the flag!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, this is so fun and festive. I saw the MBR Boyz all fixed up for the 4th and I have a feeling....uh Auntie Linda musta had something to do with that as well or maybe it was Ms. J that influenced the other way...you two are giving in to peer donkey pressure......too funny. I love it. Happy 4th to all at 7MSN. From the crew at Casa de Cuckoo.
ReplyDeleteSmooch cracks me up! Love that you had a parade all on your own :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July!
I can even hear the band playing!
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th Carson. I liked the parade. BTW do you still have that donkey cart at your place. Perhaps Lucy would pull that in your next in town parade. That would be so cute. Maybe she could even teach the guys a thing or two.
ReplyDeleteBest always, Sandra
I must say when I opened your blog I did not expect this, I simply love it.e it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't think Lucy could hold her ears up with the flag, until I saw the last, but great, shot of her! Can't believe you got them all in a line....Smooch needed a t shirt, cap or something :) Happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteSigh, couldn't find my flag for Ripley to participate but did find a flag type rail hanging the he modeled quite well as a cape!
ReplyDeleteI hope the crew at 7MSN had a fabulous 4th!
