4th of July

Well, we finally got our pictures organized and decided to let you know how our 4th of July went. Scott got up early and went shooting with some buddies. Then we went to the parade here in Rexburg. We had front row seats with the exception of the kids running in front of us to pick up all the candy. Aimee managed to snap a few pictures around the kids.








Then it was beginning to heat up nicely so we decided to go swimming. Scott really enjoyed this because he never passes up the opportunity to get wet especially in the river with a diving board. A few hours in the sun and we decided to get cleaned up and have a BBQ with some friends. We packed everything up and went to Menan (a nearby small town). We stuffed ourselves and played the waiting game until it got dark. Then we watched the fireworks. We were so close some of them looked like they filled the whole sky. They aren't the best pictures but, I'm sure you all watched your own show wherever you are.





Then when we got home Scott still hadn't had enough noise and fireworks so he decided to light some of his own bottle rockets and roman candles. He even managed to hit our mailbox with the roman candle...haha!!!


We hope you all had a wonderful Independence Day!!!!

Way to go Scott--commit a federal offense with the mail box! You left out the best part about swimming--Brady's human torpido into the booie( i don't know how to spell) and hospital visit.

We did fireworks out at Bryans and there was a kid who went running accross the field with 8 people lauching their roman candles at him. He didn't get burned but he did have a couple of nice welts to show for it.
