4TH OF JULY CELEBRATION IN DUNCAN, ARIZONA

It's an annual event for the Carlton grand-kids to go to the 4th of July celebrations in Duncan.  Eddy writes:

The theme for the parade this year in Duncan was "Heroes".  The town had an appropriate remembrance for all of our fallen heroes including Arizona's recently fallen firefighters.
(19 firefighters died fighting a wildfire). 

After the parade was the costume parade.  Quinton was Oa from the Green Lantern core. Declan was Batman. Archer was Robin and McCoy was Superman. 

The kids walked in circles for what seemed like 20 minutes with the circle getting smaller and smaller each time.  We thought the winner would be the last kid standing.  Quinton finally took charge of the "train" and went up and through  the nearby gazebo.   

First place went to "Jocklan Colton" aka Declan Carlton --not sure the lady understood him when he told her his name!

Archy had fun going down the water slide while still in character.


This other picture is from last month when we were in Phoenix for a wedding and went to a Diamond Backs game. We even pried big Quinton away from Duncan and he made a rare photo op.
