Fourth of July




Since the baby is due very soon, we decided to stay in Edmond for the Fourth of July. We began on the 3rd by attending Red, White, and Boom--an outdoor show at the downtown airpark. The OKC Philharmonic played patriotic tunes for about an hour and then ended with a fireworks show. Oh, and there was fair food--I couldn't resist a footlong corn dog. Yum-o!




On the 4th, we attended a parade in downtown Edmond. It started out a very cool morning but heated up quickly. Despite the heat, the parade was enjoyable. We saw our share of floats, Shriner clowns, old cars, and high school bands. Later that afternoon, we took a drive in the '50 to Pop's and got some sodey water. Once we got home we made dinner--grilled corn on the cob, chuck steak, and zesty roasted potatoes. We ended the night, with a fabulous fireworks show at UCO. Although, not a Seibold Fireworks show, it was very impressive.
