24th of July celebrations

We had a fun week last week. We started it off by going up to Bearlake for the week. It was a girls trip. All of the husbands were busy with work and Krisiti and Jason were on their stake trek that week. So my sister Lori me and my mom went to the cabin for the week. It was a little crazy with 10 kids and 3 adults but we had a great time. We made it home just in time to get to the parade on main street. We found a pretty good spot but it was so HOT. We kept cool with the kids spraying water on us with their squirt bottles. The kids loved the parade. They loved the clowns, the cute ponies, the missionaries, and especially seeing two of their cousins Jayci and Kelli cheering with their schools. After the parade we went up to Grandma Alldredge's house for fireworks. They loved holding sparklers and watching the fireworks. It is tradition to get on Grandma's roof to watch the Mueller Park Jr High fireworks. We were not disappointed, it was a great show! We were so tired and were anxious to get home. The next day we went to the Bountiful park and got our favorite treat Brigham's bread. The girls rode on a couple of rides but their favorite part was getting there faces painted. It was a fun day. It was nice to come home and take a nap. We ended the day with a little family BBQ and a game of croquet.
