It's Independence Day

We have had a really fun first Fourth of July as a family. The original plan was to participate in the neighborhood parade by decorating Annabelle's stroller. Unfortunately, she woke up very fussy and we couldn't make it. Instead we decided to take a quick trip to the dog park and then head over to the Farmers Market/Bicentennial Mall for a picnic. Here are some pictures of our day:

Dress rehearsal for the parade. Please note that I did not purchase this tiara for my child and she is only wearing it for holiday photo purposes. You will not be seeing my daughter on any episode of "Toddlers & Tiaras"....


So happy to be stretching out on our picnic blanket. She seems to love being outside.



Annabelle and Mom in our picnic spot. We had a beautiful view of the capitol building downtown. That park is one of the most underutilized spaces in Nashville.
