This year we decided to celebrate the holiday in the nearby city of Lake Oswego.

Parade

First we went to a morning parade. Jasmine brought her friend Brie.

Intermission

After the parade, we headed out for a lunch of burgers and fries. And then home to veg out before having a dinner of BBQ ribs and corn on the cob.

Fireworks

In the evening, we headed back to Lake Oswego to get a spot for the fireworks. We passed the time by playing cards and reading.
