4th of July Weekend

This past weekend was filled with events! From parades, bee stings, fireworks, and barbecues, to hikes, ice cream, and family, it was a fantastic weekend. Here are some snapshots of what we did.

Mom said I had to 'commune' with nature, so I did. I talked to this tree (I promise I'm not crazy).

"Mom, do we have grass stains from sliding down the hill?"

Shadows.

Can you say... CrAzY??

{Rach joined us later that night for the firework show}

{Sweet silhouettes from the sunset.}

{Fireworks!!}

Fourth of July BBQ with family.

 I made the dutch oven, and it actually turned out pretty tasty.

The annual cousin parade. Complete with a flag-carrier, floats, clowns, and acrobats.

{Love, USA, Hope}

Our very own firework show.

And who would've thought we'd need sweatshirts and blankets on the 4th of July?!

{Hiking in Logan Canyon on the 5th.}

{This tree is 2,560 years old! We live in 2010. Think about it...}

{Aggie ice cream! Mmm...mm...good.}

Karissa is set on being a true Aggie. Just look at her trot on over, stand on top, and "pucker up buttercup!"

{Maybe someday I'll be a true Aggie, too!}

{Daddy is definitely a true Aggie. Look at all those girls!}

Happy Birthday America!!!
