Red, white, and blue in West U

The Breen, Lair, and Morlot families are all smiles on their way to the Colonial Park and Pool July 4 extravaganza.

West U neighbors celebrated the Fourth of July with the annual Independence Day Parade. Neighbors dressed in red, white, and blue decorated bikes, trikes, strollers, or wagons and lined up in front of West University Elementary School for the start of the parade. Attendees made their way to Colonial Park Pool, where the festivities continued with a variety of contests, including the water balloon toss, frozen t-shirt, kids cannonball splash, and the belly flop competition. Pictured are the Breen, Lair, and Morlot families on their way to the festivities at Colonial Park Pool. See a photo slideshow by Jenna Baer here.
