4th of July


We were in Utah for the 4th of July, and had a lot of fun! We went to my parents Ward, 4th of July, Breakfast. This was the ward I grew up in, so it was fun to go back and see people I knew. We stayed for the parade that was after the breakfast. Claire loved the parade. I didn't realize until then that we don't go to many parades, so the kids didn't know what to expect. This parade was pretty good mostly because everyone was throwing candy out. Claire was hesitant to go in the street to get the candy at first (we taught her well) but she caught on quickly and had quite a stash by the time it was over. Later we met Shawn's family for a BBQ at Jim and Jamie's home (Shawn's brother's home). We had great food and the kids had fun playing with all of Gavin's toys and having a squirt gun fight! After the BBQ we went to the West Jordan Rodeo right down the street from Jim and Jamie!

Happy 4th of July! At the Breakfast!

Lilly and Claire on the 4th of July. I forgot to mention that we brought Lilly with us to Utah. I was worried at first, but it was great to have her there. She did a great job traveling with us and meeting our families.

Squirt gun fight between Will and Gavin. Will had never played with a squirt gun before, but loved it so much we ended up buying some when we got home. He thinks it is so much fun to squirt someone. Every time we go outside now I end up getting wet from from one little boy.
