The day began with the Bessemer children's parade. Our group was the "Red, White, and Blue, Browns!"
Alyssa and Lucy walking in the parade.
Madelyn waving her home made flag.
Madelyn, Mom, Cameron, Chris, Jenny, Alyssa, Lucy, and dog Frankie lined up and ready to go.
The Brown kids!
The evening Bessemer town parade began with a flyover of F16 fighter jets. Really cool, very loud!
Marty's Goldenaires led by Uncle Richard Brown
Uncle Jeremy marching
Unfortunately, we didn't win the 50/50. I think this was the largest prize ever - almost $26,000. I had big plans for that money :)
The evening continued with fireworks. Thunder on the mountain began at about 10pm. Before the kids began dropping like flies, we got a nice family picture.
Cameron was the first to pass out
Alyssa was next, with Auntie Heidi covering her ears
Madelyn almost made it to the end...
...but by the end of the big, noisy finale, all three kids were sleeping. It must have been a fun day!
