4th of July 2009
This year, the 4th of July weekend was very busy!! It started on Thursday the 2nd when we went to Frontier Days to see Blues Traveler with Tony and Maggie, Booma/Boompa and the Grandziels. The concert wasn't that good and the festival was VERY crowded. But the company was good and the kids enjoyed going on the rides!
We then stayed over at my parents house that night and went to the track the next day. We met up with the Tosh's, all the Woods, and the Grandziels, for a total of about 25 people!! The track was also VERY crowded, but it was a lot of fun! The girls enjoyed playing with their "cousins" and dancing to the music and watching the horses run!! We also stayed to watch the fireworks!! It was probably one of the best fireworks displays that I have ever seen!! They did it to music and it lasted a very long time!! Loren LOVED it and Kaylynn fell asleep!! We finally got home a little before midnight!! Long day!!!
On Saturday the 4th we went over to the Woods house for a bbq and some swimming. The weather wasn't the best, but that didn't stop us from having fun in the pool!! It was another long day, but lots of fun!
Sunday the 5th we hung out at home, then went to see the CL fireworks at a local middle school with our neighbors Joy, Will and Addy. Despite the bugs, the fireworks were fun to see!! A nice way to end a fun weekend!!!
Here are a TON of pictures from the weekend:
