Independence Day

HAPPY 4th of JULY!!! I love this holiday. I really don't know why but I always look forward to planning the girls attire, watching the fireworks, and of course the parade...which we did not find this year but it was still great. Can't expect everyone to do the fourth as well as small towns like Kanab. :)
We began our day with a pancake breakfast, they were delicious but it was much MUCH too hot to be outside. The girls were begging to go inside after about 10 minutes and I came back inside dripping with sweat. (sexy, I know...but it's true...it was really hot.) After that we decided to find some indoor/air conditioned activities. The girls helped me make a flag cake, we painted fingernails, made our own flags, and played with water balloons. Then got nice and rested for the fireworks later.
When Shawn got done with work we headed to PF Changs for a yummy dinner with friends and off to a nearby park for the Firework Show. I would say it was an EXCELLENT 4th of July.














(Sorry about some of the pics quality, my camera died and we had to resort to Shawn's iphone. Bry was the photographer and insisted I put them on here. :)
