While in Idaho Falls spending time with my mom, we celebrated the 4th of July. Idaho Falls has a fantastic firework show that I love to go see, and they also have a parade that morning. So between the parade, our family BBQ, and the firework show, and then our own little firework show, it was a long day and the kids were exhausted! But we had a great time!
Addi bundled at the parade. It was a little chilly to start, but warmed up quickly!

oh, my goodness, it's a picture of Josh and I together! We have very few of these now that we have kids! :)
Addi all decked out in her patriotic colors!
I couldn't get Justin to take off his jacket, but he too was also patriotic.
Us before the fireworks started.
Addi wasn't too sure about the fireworks... she was very intrigued, but also scared. She would go back and forth between Josh and I, and would bury her head into our chests, but then she would turn to watch until there was a loud one. She finally gave up and fell asleep. Justin just sat with us watching, but right before it ended, he asked me if he could go to sleep, and when I asked him uh oh are you tired? He said no it's just LOUD! I told him that I would cover his ears. He watched for a few minutes like that... then fell asleep.
We also got to go to Heise, a swimming pool that I grew up going to, so I wanted to take my kids there. We had a picnic before we went swimming.
It took some convincing, but Justin went down the slide with Daddy, and he LOVED it! They went several times before Justin finally gave up because he was cold.
