Happy Birthday America!

Ok, so America's birthday was this past Wednesday, but this particular blog is highlighting what we did to celebrate on that day. 

First of all, let me just say how much I love this country and all the freedoms that come with it.  Every single one of them.  People may complain about certain things that happen within this country, but the fact that they can happen the way they do happen, is evidence to just how awesome America is.  Land of the free and home of the brave.  May God ever shed His grace on thee.

Our little town had a parade so of course we had to go!  It was so long though we had to leave before it ended.  Let me just show you a snippet of the action:

We went with our neighbor's the Bybee's!  We love you Bybee's!

Big red tractor thing in the parade.

GIANT shopping cart!  It even had large grocery items in it in case you can't see in the picture.

Sleepy Dallin!  The excitement was just too much for him.

Our college even had a float haha It's a great day at BYU-Idaho!

After the parade we went to the hospital and ate food at the cafeteria.  It is seriously tasty and cheap!

And then to top it all off, we had a cook out at the park with the Bybees, Youngs, and Chaz and Andrea (soon to be married). 

Bybee's enjoying watermelon.

Man makes fire!

Dallin had a blow out... Right on Nikki's lap!  It got on my lap too because we didn't realize it till it was too late.

Happy Family.

Chaz and Andrea.  Aww... so cute.

The Youngs playing with Dallin.

We had a great day!
