4th of July

Dear Baby,

On July 4th of every year we celebrate our freedoms and love of our country!  It is a fun time of year, especially in Utah.  On the 2nd we went to your Great-Uncle Richard's (and Great-Aunt Susan's) home for a family party!  Oh the fun you will have there!  They are truly so giving and loving and their home is so fun!  We really had the best time.  Thanks to them for everything!!!  (I forgot the camera!)

On the 4th we spent the day with the Nelson's and had an awesome time!  

We rode our bikes to the shaved ice stand and enjoyed a nice treat

You will love this place but you will have to wait a few years to get your own!

We spent the afternoon relaxing and headed back to their house for BBQ and smores.  We also got the funniest video below of Jeremy trying to catch the chickens to clip their wings!  

After dinner and dessert it started to rain a little and then it started to rain a lot!  We headed out front to quickly do fireworks but we got poured on!  It stormed so hard so we finished the fireworks the following evening (and got rained on again!)

It was a fun holiday!  We are excited to show you all these fun traditions and start making our own traditions with you!

Love,
Mom and Dad
