Our neighborhood does a fantastic job with celebrating the 4th of July. We have a parade, games, fireworks, dinner and of course a lawn mower race. Since we were at the lake and didn't get back until Monday we missed everything except the lawn mower race. We enjoyed watching the men race last year; some of the men really get into it.
This year the races were taking place in front of our house. It was an extremely hot summer day; 104 with no wind, so Wesley and his friend Erin cooled down with a yummy popsicle. Wesley liked to watch the guys race by and would clap as they passed.
They have two different races; lawn mowers that are not modified and then modified. There were several lawn mowers that raced in the not modified race and then there were 3 in the modified. The sheriffs blocked off the road and clocked them as they passed; 35 mph. I told Mark he wasn't allowed to ever race lawn mowers at 35 mph.
Wesley and Mark waiting for the races to start.
We have tons of frogs in our yard and flowerbeds that Wesley likes to catch. He decided that after the races he wanted to put them in his pool and have them swim with him.
