4th of July Fun

For the 4th this year we were in Utah with my Sister. Most of my family ended up there on their way on different vacations so we had a big family dinner and then let the kids play games in the yard. We had so much fun!!



They had a slip n' slide set up and the kids loved it. This was Olivias first time on one and she was awesome. She had no fear and would jump and slide with the best of them.



Abby didn't want to slide, she just wanted to model her swimsuit in the little pool at the end. "Hey good lookin'"

Next they had gunny sack races. The kids were having lots of fun until the "men" decided they wanted a turn. We even had a special appearence on the end from cousin it. Who lets their children out in public with hair like that?




Ammon really wanted to win-check out that face-pure determination. He was so set on winning that he pushed over his 5 yr old nephew in order to win.



He didn't stop at this-he then rubbed it in their faces and did a victory dance. I'm so glad that then men in our family are so mature.

Vern wasn't so mean and Warren took him-poor Vern.

Later that night we set some fireworks off in the street while the kids screamed and my brother Dennis complained that they weren't cool enough. All in all it was a great day and everyone had a good time. Thanks to Sara and Doug for letting us mess up their house and eat all their food-we will be back next year.
