4TH OF JULY EXCITEMENTS!

In July, we did LOTS of things.  So I'm going to break July up into several posts!

First, was the fourth of July celebration.  Every year we go to the parade.  Its tradition and I told Byron that we have to go no matter what. I  missed a few 4ths when we were first married and it just isnt the same with his family.  We have to celebrate the 4th with my family in Show Low.  After the parade, my family all gets together for a BBQ.  Then that night we all gather at my parents house to watch the fire works since they are so close to us at the high school.  Last year the weather was so hot, but this year it actually started out kinda cold, but by the time the parade was over it was getting really warm.  That night, when we watched the fire works at my parents house, it was sprinkling.  But the kids loved it.  I kept Colter inside the house anyways since the fireworks are kinda loud.  We just wrapped ourselves up in blankets and had lots of fun.  I love watching the fire works and to see what new designs they come up with every year.
