4th of July

We celebrated the 4th in our typical fashion of the past few years. We got up early and headed to the ward breakfast, ate good food, and visited with friends. The kids enjoyed the fun activities, like a watermelon eating contest, a cherry seed spitting contest, a bubble gum chewing contest, and water balloon toss. Our afternoon was spent relaxing at home, swimming, and barbecuing!

The best part of the day, of course, is in the evening. We head toward downtown to watch the fireworks. There is a nice spot we head to each year, where we meet up with a number of friends from the ward to snack and visit for a couple of hours prior to the fireworks. It has been a great time in the past, and this year did not appoint! The fireworks show was great as well, I think it was better than last year's.
