The Fourth of July!



 

July 4th is my FAVORITE holiday. I LOVE this country and the freedoms we enjoy. America has a fun day of celebrating it. I don't know if it's the parades, food, red & blue clothing, or fireworks but I just love the feeling you get while eating a burger in someone's backyard with your red shirt on and you're about to enjoy some fireworks. Tutorial about how to take the above firework pictures here.

We started our day off with the Rexburg 4th of July Parade! See all those camping chairs?? They were ALL along the sidewalk the night before to "save their spot". We needed some new camping chairs so... we bought some :) haha. It was so tempting though! They were just laying there!

{Kent and Nora sporting our *new chairs - I promise we bought some}
Even though we had a really great view from our window, we decided to watch it from the street with the Raricks! 
The horses were my favorite^

Kiwi Loco frozen yogurt handed out FROZEN YOGURT! Rexburg has 1 parade every year and they go all out.

After the parade we went to the movie, Despicable Me 2! We were laughing like the whole time.

After a nap, we played Canasta with these two and then drove ourselves down to the Mannan Booths and Fireworks! It was such a fun little place. We ate a torta and a funnel cake! Then we paid $3 for a giant Cotton Candy - the lady made it and you said "when" to stop. It was nuts!

Here are the intax pictures we got from it! Here is what happened a year ago. Not as eventful as this year. But I love forth of July's with this guy.
