Fourth of July


We had a fun and full fourth of July. Since Ster and the kids had just been to a parade a few days before the fourth we skipped an actual parade that morning. Which was fine by me so I'd get to sleep in a little bit! We got up and took our time getting ready and I also made some food for our potluck. We then headed to a park in Lindon to meet up with Sterling's family.

We ate lots of yummy food and the cousins had a blast playing with each other.

The sprinklers in the park turned on for about an hour while we were there. The dads,kids and Aunt Mckaylee had a great time playing frisbee, frisbee golf, chase and other games in the sprinklers! The mom's had a great time visiting.

Then a lot of people played Baseball!

The kids also had a great time playing with squirt guns and swinging on the swings.

After about five hours of playing at the park we headed home. We stopped and got pizza for dinner on the way home so I wouldn't have to cook. We bought a huge pack of fireworks from Costco and had fun watching them go off once it got dark enough. Our next door neighbors joined us which added to the fun. We then went to two different neighbors and watched their fireworks. We finally got the kids to bed around 11 PM. They didn't have a nap that day and were more than ready to call it a day!!!
