In Madeira we celebrate July 4th on July 3rd. We like to get a head start on all of the celebrating... Anyhow, that's just the way it has always been in our small town. So on July 3rd we have a parade, festival (i.e. local band, fried food, and ice cream), and fireworks. It is one of my favorite Madeira traditions and I love getting to celebrate Independence day twice!! Next year if anyone is itching for an early July 4th celebration you are welcome to join us...you'll find me by the funnel cake!
Luke getting ready for his first parade.
Watching the marching band.
Sarah rode the marching band bus and waved to her friends.
The only float in the whole parade and we still aren't sure exactly what it is...though it is a little birthday cake-esque...
A few of our favorites...
