July 4th (and 5th)

So we had a pretty chill 4th this year... We went to the Stratford parade in Colleen and Joel's neighborhood, then hung out at the after party with snow cones (always a must for this family...if you can't tell from our previous posts...we LOVE our snow cones...he he he), and popcorn and cotton candy. Little Josh slept through the whole thing, then woke up ready to eat right when we were ready to go, so we fed him at Colleen's, then she fed us a fun BBQ lunch! Thanks Coke and Joel, it was a fun day! Kaylie felt pretty yucky that night, so we watched the fireworks from our window, we could kinda see the Sugarhouse park ones, through a really big tree...



The 5th was lots of fun too, so we consider it a 2 day holiday. We went up to James' family condo in Park City. I sat by the pool, Kaylie played with all her cousins, got pretty good with a squirt gun..., and Josh of course, slept through all the fun, and woke up ready to eat right before we went inside. Then to end the day, we sat 28 people at the Main St. Pasta and Pizza, it was good food, and who doesn't like a whole lotta chaos with your dinner??? :) No, it really was fun! :)

We really are so grateful to live in this awesome country, sure we have our issues... But how wonderful it is to have the freedoms we all enjoy and take for granted. I know this country was founded by god fearing men, and it was inspired so we can worship freely and have joy.
