Happy Fourth of July!

We started our Independence Day with the traditional Columbia Neighborhood parade where kids decorate their vehicles and march through the neighborhoods behind a band playing patriot music in the back of a pick-up. Then came music, games and a picnic.

Later in the day, our own neighborhood shut down part of Iron Street for the evening festivities. Kids rode bikes up and down the street, enjoyed fireworks and ate tons of yummy food. The highlight was an enormous 30 pound pig that had been roasted all night on hot rocks in a huge fire pit our friends' backyard.

Hope you enjoyed your holiday, too.
