4th of July

On the 4th we had a great day just hanging out with family. It started out in the morning with a fun run that I did and the parade through town. The run was a 10k and it was just me and one other guy running it. I was ahead the whole time then he cut through the basketball court and cut me off at the end. Not that I'm bitter. Anyway, after that we had our little parade through town and the kids got way too much candy. Edyn and I were pretty tired by this time and took a nap while Kevin took the kids over to some games at the park and ate lunch. In the evening we went over to Kevin's parent's house and set off fireworks, most of then were 30 year old ones that we found in the basement as all we could find were the snap/pop it fireworks. The kids still thought they were awesome and they were pretty entertained.

We watched the city fireworks that night in our front yard, the display is set off across the street at the park. Its the perfect location to watch fireworks. Lucy was covering her ears at first and was a little scared but quickly got into the spirit of things and was yelling at us, "its my favorite color!!", and "they are so pretty!" over and over.

Isak and Lucy were sword fighting while we were waiting for the fireworks to start.

My parents came up and watched the fireworks with us and helped entertain the kids. It was a lot of fun. I always love the 4th of July every year in our little town.
