These pictures are out of order. We were able to have my Dad and my Sister and her kids here for the 4th this year. I hope they had a lot of fun. My mom went to visit her parents in Vernal this weekend so she was not with us. We started off the 4th of July morning at the ward breakfast. Which Derek got asked to help cook the pancakes. Then they had a program and a bike parade for the kids in the Church parking lot. This year Derek and I decorated the girls bikes because they were with my dad up in Ogden visiting his parents. Then the ward had a obstacle course for the kids to go through at the park behind the Church. They had a blast. Then we went to Emmie and Jason house that evening and had a bbq and they had water stuff for the kids to do while we were eating. Then Jason and Emmie had some awesome fireworks they let off and then we went and watched the big fireworks at the park in pleasant grove with them. This is the first year we have stayed to watch the big fireworks and Ellie and Kason fell asleep during them. It is so nice to be able to have family around for the holiday and to get together with family too. I am so thankful for the land that we live in and for the freedom that we do get to enjoy.
