We had a great 4th of July this year, it was a busy day as usual, but it was actually really fun and quite relaxing. We started out with the parade, my boys got to ride in the parade with Grandpa Fuhriman this year along with their cousin James. We took Karlee Terry with us, and she was fun to have throughout the day. We sat with the Anglins, and my parents. It was fun to enjoy their company.
The only unfortunate event of the day was that our van got rear-ended. It didn't total the car, but Reid was driving with 6 other people in the car including his Dad, Danny, James, Karlee, Savanna and Mitch. Luckily no one was seriously injured, but it did kind of put a crimp in our day. Reid was stopped at a stop sign on Hitt and 17th and the lady came up behind him and didn't even try to stop. It is very frustrating because she doesn't have insurance so we are going to be stuck having to use our insurance. Sometimes life isn't too fun when it comes to stuff like that.
In the afternoon we went over to Garth and Amy's for a picnic and to play on their fun water toys, the food was delicious, the company was amazing and the kids had a blast playing in the water. It was lots of fun to see my cousins, siblings and especially uncle Garth playing in the water.
That evening we decided we didn't want to fight the crowd so we did a few fireworks of our own in the back yard and headed up to the Iona Hill to watch the fireworks, it turned out to be not such a great view so we ended up not staying for the whole show. But we were all exhausted and ready to go to bed anyway. All in all it was a great day.

Glad you had some fun on the 4th! love the flag dessert:) SO SAD about the van. Man, that can be frustrating. I think the water slides look like fun! I miss the nice green grass in Idaho...you know, the kind you can actually walk on barefoot, or sit on (and not get eaten by fire ants!)
I think the "boys" all looked great in the car! I love all the smiles.
