Fourth of July Fun

 

 

We had a very busy July 4th this year, and it was so much fun!  Here are some pictures from our activities that day.

We headed to the parade in Canyon, where Alice collected candy like a pro.  We should have enough to last us until Halloween...

 

 

Later that afternoon, we got Alice's bike decorated for the kids bike parade.  She was so excited to be able to ride her own bike this year, and it was about the cutest thing I have ever seen.  Here she is practicing on the back patio.

 

Here are a few shots from the actual parade.  It is actually a photo contest for the newspaper too, and this year our girls won!  They scored some pool passes, free dinner at Mr. Gattis Pizza, and ride passes to wonderland.  They were the cutest little patriots ever...no seriously, they were.

 

 

 

 

 

We are so lucky to live where we can see the big fireworks show from our backyard.  Alice was really pumped to stay up past her bedtime for the festivities.  Here she is clad in her jammies with a glow wand so excited that she can't sit still, and there was still about an hour to wait! 

 

 

The next day we had family dinner at Nana and Pops, and Alice and Kendall had some serious fun in the wading pool.
