We had a great fourth of July this year, taking part in the Rancho Santa Fe parade, since my dad had the honor of being the Grand Marshall.

It was a fun small-town event, although on a bit different scale than other small towns, because this was of course in one of the richest communities in the world {small exaggeration}.

In this small town, the parade consisted of Ferraris and Lamborginis and fancy vintage tractors.

At first Gigi was a little nervous about riding in such a loud car (Lamborgini), but she warmed up to it. She loved all the American flags. Last week she even asked the librarian for a couple of books about American Flags.

Brody and Micah both looked adorable although those lazy bums slept right through most of the festivities, heehee.

After the parade, we had ice cream and took a little walking tour of The Inn, a beautiful little resort in downtown RSF.

Then we headed back to my parents’ for a BBQ with family and friends, and finished off the night with a great view of the La Costa Resort & Spa’s fireworks show from our friends’ back patio.

Happy Birthday, America!
