4th of July Whitefish Bay Style

This was our first 4th in Whitefish Bay and we had been warned that this is a BIG deal around here, we figured how big of deal can it be? Its the 4th of July don't you just BBQ and see fireworks? So Nick was at a golf tournement all weekend so I decided to embark on the fesitives with the girls by myself!
The day started out at 9am with a breakfast party, yes 9am! The hosts had a catered breakfast, a 4 piece dixie band, facepainter, flags and decorations for the kids, and anything else that you could possibly think of, I know now when our friend Brad said, "Sandy I don't think you know what you are getting yourself into," he was right. Cal was in her heyday I don't think I saw her for more then 2 seconds when she showed me her red,white, and blue bagel!
Then it was off to the parade. Now I don't consider myself a parade person but even I had fun. They had stilt walkers and clowns, bands the whole nine yards, Cal once again with her flag waving with her friends yelling "Go Team!"
Quick trip home for lunch and then off to BBQ and a town carnival and then fireworks to which Cally exclaimed,"They are beautiful!"
Yes and that was all in one day, lets just say we slept well that night!!!
Happy 4th of July!
