West Haven Days

We went to the parade for West Haven Days for the first time this year, because Brielle was in it! She rode a float with her cheer team and dance studio and she loved it. They had learned a few cheers but they didn't work on the float so when she passed us we just got a wave and a big smile. It was so cute. 

After the parade we made our way over to the pickle-ball fields because Tim was playing in the tournament with Ryan Nichols. They actually did pretty good considering they had never played together and Tim has only ever played a handful of times.

That evening we went back to the park for the Ryan Shupe and the Rubber Band concert and fireworks. We ended up going to watch part of the rodeo for a while and I think next year we'll have to go to the whole thing. Then we went back to the concert to dance and watch the fireworks.

While we were sitting with our little clutch of kids in front of us, Tim leaned over and pointed out that this is it - everything that matters fit right on that little blanket. And its true.
