We had a fun 4th of July in Idaho this year! Scott had three days off from work and it was so nice to have him home. We got a lot done around the house and spent lots of time with family. Our 4th of July festivities included the parade in Idaho Falls (which was fun for the kids but soooo loooong), fireworks at the Allen's with cousins, and the big fireworks show in Idaho Falls. It was such a fun day and we were so glad we could share it with family!
Jace liked the parade at first, but got a little bored with it after a while. However, when the cheerleaders danced on by he couldn't stop oohing.
Katie sat and watched the whole entire parade. She loved sitting by Matt and Emily and taking in all of the sights! According to her, the best things about the parade were seeing the big trucks and getting treats from the floats.

During our at home fireworks show a baby duck showed up on the sidewalk. It was a pretty new baby and we had no idea where it came from. The kids were more interested in the duck than in the fireworks. I have to agree that it was pretty cute.
Jace liked the fireworks and would get excited whenever one would go off. Loud noises certainly don't scare him!
We watched the Idaho Falls fireworks show from the back of the Allen's pickup. We had a great view from a neighbor's driveway. The show was great, especially the finale! Katie really liked the big fireworks. Jace, however, couldn't last that long and fell asleep half way through.
