4th of July

We had a fun 4th of July and how lucky are we to live in such a great country!  I tried to talk to our girls about why we are celebrating but they didn't get it.  However, they did like waving their flags they got in Nursery.  Side note, I love our nursery leaders...have I ever told you that?  I do, maybe I'll write about all the fun things they do with the kids and how excited and loving they are to all the kids.

Anyways, 4th of July morning started with our annual neighborhood bike parade and breakfast.  They even rented a bounce house that the girls enjoyed jumping on.  I didn't get any pictures though.

For lunch we went to my parents and had a family bbq of hot dogs and other yummy food.  We didn't stay too long because I wanted to make sure we got good naps in for fireworks that night.

After dinner we headed over to Sandy with most of my side of the family to listen to music, hang out with family, play 'cards with numbers' (Siena's current obsession!...thank you Jennifer) and of course watch fireworks.  Once again all our kids did great staying up way past their bedtime.  Even Jaron was happy as ever.  They loved the fireworks and I wish I had a picture of Jaron trying to reach out and touch the fireworks as they were shot into the air, it was so cute.  It was a great day and loved celebrating our freedoms we all enjoy.
