Happy 4th of July!

Me and Steve have boycotted the parade for the last few years. We always said when we had kids we would have to go. Well that backfired cause this year we have Rex. So at 8:00 we were off to the parade. Rex loved it. The firetrucks and police cars were first and he thought that was the neatest thing. He kept holding his hands out to them.

After the parade we went up the canyon for lunch. The kids played in the river and Rex played the drums. He would bang on the rackets and they would make noise. He was pretty good at it. Steve came right home and started looking for a kids drum set for Rex's birthday. We went to my Aunts and Uncles for dinner and swimming. Then we were off for the real stadium of fireworks. I had just given Rex a bath and my Mom decided to give him an Oreo. He enjoyed it but had it all over. He didn't make it for the fireworks. The day had done him in and he fell asleep on me. All that waiting and he didn't even get to see one.

We hope you all had a great 4th of July.
