Haviland Family: July 2010

After the pancake breakfast! Happy 4th!

We had such a fun 4th of July! We live in a great community, but it is especially fun on the 4th. At 8 am we went to the Pancake Breakfast held at the Lake Joaquin. My grandparents, my parents and the three of us all went to the breakfast. Thankfully Trader Joes has dairy free pancakes, so I brought Jackson's pancakes :) After the pancake breakfast we walked back to our house and had another mimosa before the parade at 10. Jackson loved the parade. He especially loved the fire truck and of course all the goodies that were thrown to the crowd. After the parade we went swimming at Mimi and Poppa's (my parents) then Jackson and I took a nap while Nic played golf. We had a BBQ, dessert and fireworks at our house at 6:30 that night. Rancho Murieta uses part of the HOA's to pay for a $25,000 firework show. We can see it very well from our front lawn. They are shot over the front lake so we have a great spot. I was trying to be flexible with Jackson's schedule so we let him stay up to watch the fireworks. For those of you who don't know he goes to bed between 6:30-7pm and sleeps straight through to 8 am. He feel asleep in the middle of the show and even slept through the LOUD finale....poor guy was too worn out from the busy day. It was a fun day!! Hope everyone had a great holiday!!
