We love the 4th of July at our house. Every year we wake up early and head down to Provo for the parade. The kids love it!

After the parade we always head over to my favorite aunt's house for a yummy breakfast and a dip in their pool. The kids had a blast swimming. Sam even jumped off the diving board for the first time. He was very proud of his accomplishment.

We ended the evening with some fun fireworks...which I'm not a fan of. They scare me with little kids. Who's idea was it anyway to put fire on the end of a metal stick then hold it and wave it in front of your face? Oh well, against my better judgement my kids enjoyed every minute of the danger!
