4th of July

It has been a week since our Old Glory Days for Riverdale. It wears me out. But I was so excited at the success of the whole thing. One of the things I was most excited about was our flyover. We have one every year but this year because of some complications I didn't get the paperwork done in time. When Hill Air Force Base contacted me I had to tell them 'no'. So that morning in my craziness all of a sudden when our parade was going there comes four jets overhead followed by some larger plane. I was so excited!!! For the whole thing the baby contest, the volleyball and 3 on 3 tournaments, the watermelon & pie eating contests, the entertainment, the booths, the parade, the 5k walk/run, the kids games & the fireworks was a good day. But my day starts at 4am and by the time the fireworks come, mine has fizzled out. One of the funny things was at the entertainment we had a hypnotist. Our Mindy went up there. He had her being 'Mr. America'. he told her when her called her up to recieve her award she would strut across the stage and flex. She did!!! She was a hoot!!! Later the hypnotist had all the contestants stand up to do the "bum drum." They would use their own behind ends as a drum. He also told them they couldn't play anyone elses drums(hee, hee). Everyone faced their behind ends towards the audience and with one had on each side 'played the drum'. Mindy had us cracking up because she did it differently than everyone else. She took both hands at a time and "played one side at a time.
