This year on the fourth we had our friend Ryan come and stay the night at our house. His wife is about ready to pop any day and wasn't up for the trip. He came to the fireworks the night before and then we planned a day of fun at the beach. We decided to go to Hyrum Dam beach! It was perfect! The sun was hot, the water was perfect...and the company even better. The kids played and of course we ate some good snacks! Have I ever said I
LOVE the 4th?!?! Yes, cuz it is fun, food, family, friends and festivities...oh and the warmth! :)
Someone had this awesome tricycle there..Tate was the lucky one to take it for a spin. He had a BLAST!
Later that night G and G Barfuss had a fun little BBQ out back and fireworks out in the street. The kids had a grand ole time. This year I think the colorful smoke bombs were the favorite. Not too bad when they are super cheap!
Crew was tired after a long day ..and the fireworks sorta scared him! He did ok, though!
That night after getting the kids down for bed, Aaron and I got on the roof! We love this tradition. It is just us on top of the world...but tons of fireworks are going off all over the valley. We love that we get to enjoy them, and they are free! HA HA! We always try and take a picture with our eyes open, but have such a hard time in the dark. They are funny to look at afterwards!
