Happy 4th!

This year a bunch of friends and my family all met at the parade. I love the 4th so I go all out and I made white flower clips for Ruby's hair and red flower clips for my hair. The parade was long and had lots of spaces as usual but we had a lot of fun getting Porter to be competitive about the candy. This was the first year we didn't have to help him so it was fun to see him out their fending for himself.
After the parade a few friends came over and we went swimming in our above ground pool. It was a nice cool way to spend the afternoon. I forgot sunscreen on all of us but luckily my kids dont burn so I was the only one who ended up with a sunburn, a really painful sunburn.

Since we all had been together for most of the day we ended it together with a fun barbeque and fireworks at the Henefers. Sam and the other pyros lit fireworks and luckily there was only two close calls, one that almost shot all the bystanders and one that shot into the empty field and almost started a brush fire.
The day was really great, just a nice day spent with friends!

FYI-thanks to everyone (Keri & Leilani) who took pictures hope you dont mind that I copied them from your blogs
