Happy Independence Day!

E had a fun party at school to commemorate our country's independence.  All the kids marched around in fun hats and big, happy smiles.  Here, E and his good buddy Gavin lead his classroom out to join the march.
Snack time followed the march!  The teachers passed out plain ol' sugar cookies, followed by a dollup of icing, and finally sprinkles.  The kids were supposed to decorate their cookies with the icing and sprinkles; however, E simply couldn't wait.  He was the first kid to down the cookie!  Next, he went mono y mono with the icing and, of course, won convincingly.  Gavin, on the other hand, waited patiently to eat his cookie.  Like a good buddy, when Gavin saw that E was fresh out of snack, he generously offered up some of his sprinkles by sticking them on the end of his finger and rubbing them on E's cheeks.  Mary and I had a hearty laugh along with Gavin's parents.  Peas in a pod.
