We really hope you were able to make it to this year's 4th of July Parade in Downtown Hillsboro celebrating Hometown Heros. If not, here is your snapshot of the highlights.

All our neighbors in the street, sharing a blanket, a picnic or just making friends. Did you see the house with the oversized bubble machine to help excite the crowds of kids? Brilliant!

Synchronized Washington County Sheriffs on motorcycles to make way for the parade to start. Imagine synchronized swimming, only officers on motorcycles with lights and all. It was AWESOME!

Red, white, and blue in many proud shades and forms! We had Hawaiian leis, wigs, disco glitter, capes, hats and even candies! It was very clear that everyone was excited to celebrate the 4th of July together.
