4th of July Celebration!

We had a busy but fun 4th of July weekend. It seemed like we were always doing something. I guess that is a good thing. We started off with a baseball tournament. Tacoma played in 4 games then they were knocked out of the tournament so that left Saturday open. We went 4 wheeling up at Strawberry and then had a BBQ. On Monday I actually talked Troy into going to the Parade in Provo with all 300,000 people. What was I thinking? We got there right before it started and sat at the beginning of the route. The kids really enjoyed it, so I am glad we went. After the Parade we went on a bike ride all the way up to Bridal Veil Falls. The kids made it the whole way. After that adventure Tacoma had baseball practice. He was selected to play on the All Star team this year. That tournament starts this weekend. While Tacoma was at practice the rest of us wanted to play ball too, so we brought along our baseball stuff to hit and field balls at the park. After all of the ball playing we decided to make homemade ice cream. We had a ball doing it. After that we headed over to our friends house to have smores and do fireworks. We all had a great time and enjoyed our 4th of July!

Talon is completely asleep. The 4 wheeler always puts our kids to sleep. Tessa had just woken up.

HOLY COW! You guys were busy. Sounds like you had a good time. I can't believe you talked Troy into going to the parade.
