Independence!

I love the 4th of July! It's right up there with Christmas as one of my favorite holidays. We have always been in Malad for the Fourth. I don't think that will ever change. I was wanting to stay in Logan this year but, I'm glad we kept to tradition. We always get to see a lot of family and have good times! Plus, the population of Malad doubles.

My hometown  parade is the best for many reasons. It's just long enough, the kids get tons of candy and I always see a handful of people I know. 

 Waiting for the parade to start.

Luke is feeling the excitement!

 Just lovin' my baby.

Candy Chaos!

Porter and Cameron totally loving it.

John is protecting Luke's ears from the fire engine siren. IT. WAS. LOUD!!

We had a great time. Due to all the excitement and commotion of the day, Luke got about 2 hours of sleep. He conked out right before the fireworks started and slept 10 hours that night!  

Hooray for the 4th and our freedom!
