Fourth of July!

(With my camera broken, here's the best we can do for pics for now...)
Tyler, Josh and Emily were brave enough to get up for the Hot Air Balloons at 6 a.m.
Then we headed over to the Parade to join the rest of the cousins. Thanks Braden for sleeping out and getting us the great seats again.
Then up to bountiful for a BBQ with the Atkinson's and the coolest cul-de-sac of fireHilary let Tyler run the fishing pond! My kids love this tradition!
Tyler's Harry Potter impression.The Two Crazy Pyro's! Thanks for an awesome show!Highlights:
*Ryan's Deluxe Hamburgers on Saturday, smoked Brisket on Sunday, Fall apart Ribs on Monday! (were done with meat for awhile)
*Mom's fruit tart dessert and yummy french toast breakfast with strawberries, blueberries and powdered sugar.
*Sleeping on the tramp with the kids
*Broken A/C and not one complaint from the kids!
*Walking to Gas and Go with my Dad for drinks and treats for the kids.
*The amount of people who can be crammed into a McDonalds on the 4th and still able to give fast service!
*Thankful my husband won't spend THAT much money on fireworks!
*The amazing people who serve our country and provide us with the freedoms that we enjoy!

yeah you need a new camera- i can hardly see how darn cute your kids look that day. The fourths the best. I'm feeling a little left out I missed the parade!
