Follow the Red Brick Road

After months of waking up to beeping construction trucks, our brick street is finally finished. it's been a blast having the road closed - we've had giant sand piles to play in and trucks to climb on. However, all of that fun came to an end on Monday when they cut the ribbon and moved the barricades to our beautiful new Humphrey Ave.

In celebration, we decided to have a kid parade and as you can see, Francis took the task very seriously. She dressed up as a "boo-tiful princess" and Georgie is wearing Francis's old Chewbacca costume. My favorite part of her "float" was the Nicor Gas Company flag (that was previously a marker in our yard) or maybe it was the balloon that said "719 rules!" It's a tough call.
