We had a great 4th of July this year! The only down side was that Easton was missing from our activities this year. He went with my dad to southern Utah for a big family reunion. He was gone for 5 days, the 4th of July being one of them. He had a BLAST with grandpa, so I was really glad that he was able to go. We sure missed him, though. It just feels weird to have one of the kids gone on a holiday.
We have developed traditions that we do every year. We always start with the parade.
I was able to snap several cute pictures of the girls:
They sure love each other and are great buddies:

Dave's mom and dad and Uncle Dennis:
We had the unfortunate experience of having the horses go to the bathroom right in front of us. Avery was appalled at that! She couldn't quit plugging her nose and had this horrible look on her face.
It was so funny!
That afternoon we had a yummy BBQ at Dave's parents' house. Then we headed home for a much needed rest. After dinner we took a little walk around the neighborhood and then headed to the fireworks.
The best part about the 4th for me is all the good quality family time that we spend together. It is always a fantastic day!
