4th of July

We went to South Salt Lake parade Saturday morning with my family, then over to the once amazing carnival. This year it was reduced to just 2 inflated bouncers, one snow cone stand, and some races. Pretty sad showing, but the kids had fun any way and we had fun since everything but snow cones was free.







Then we had a bbq with my family and hung out all day. Lots of fun and very calm and relaxing. The boys spent approximately 6 hours in my parents' sand box.

We ran back up to Fruit Heights that night so my family could get ready for their trip to California. We did some sparklers and fire works in the cul-de-sac. Then we sat on the drive way to watch two big firework shows. The boys were so wired. We had a lot of fun!

The kids pretty much lit all the fireworks. Bailey (age 9) made sure all the boys got a turn to set the firework in the road and she lit most of them herself. It was lots of fun to watch.
