Fourth of July weekend!

This is what we felt like all weekend... but it was so much fun!!

Chris' parents drove up from St. George, and his Brother David with his family from Salt Lake. David and Kira stayed with us. I love having company! We did a BBQ here on Saturday with Chris' family, and my parents came too.

All the boys were having a great time putting on the girl' dress ups. 

Dancing :)

Swimming in the HOT pool

It was a sauna in the pool room, but Kira stills look amazing

On the 4th (Monday), we went to the breakfast at our ward at 8 am. Then on to the parade in Basin City at 10. Small town parades are so fun!

We sat with the Colby and Trisha, David and Kira, Juan, My parents, Bryan, Jessica, and John and his boys. All the McGary's were on a float. 

It was perfect. Not too many kids to compete with for the candy. Addysin and Caiden LOVE Nova and Austin, their cousins. 

Oh yes, Alise in the parade at 37 weeks prego!

Hey, I was standing at a bad angle! I look so much bigger and she is 8 weeks further!

David and Kira

Afterwards we went to Melissa and Ryan's for swimming and a BBQ. Caiden was so happy with all the fun boy toys they have. At one point I couldn't find him and was calling for him in the house. He came running out of the boy's room yelling "Mom, two Spidan!!!" (spiderman)

Coincidence or obsession with green? 

Toothpick game

At 8:00 we got to the river for the fireworks. They didn't start until 10 so we had a lot of waiting time. Chris' family would always get there super early to eat KFC and hang out when Chris was a teenager so they thought it would be fun. It wasn't not fun. I just dont want to do that again. 

Joe and Alanna met up with us with some delish cookies. You can always count on her for some yummy treats.

My cuties

I am so exhausted now. Today was really productive and I had a ton of energy until 5:00. Now I'm so tired I feel like I'm gonna die, but my kids are in bed so I am trying to stay caught up on this blog. Super fun weekend and the perfect example of what the 4th should be like. Thanks for driving up David, Kira, Chuck, and Carol. Its great to be with family!
