Parties and parades; Family reunions and fireworks

Tyler's mom threw a Fancy Nancy party for all the girls. It was fun to dress up and eat fancy things.

So if you know me, you should know that I don't enjoy parades. Never have. Tyler took Ada up to the Layton parade on the 4th, and Kate and I stayed home and slept.





Every summer, Tyler's dad's family gets together for a reunion. This year we went to a church in Bountiful. There were tons of activities and games for kids and big people alike, as well as a big lunch. This is the only picture I have, but I had to document the fact that Tyler had a broom and was actually sweeping. I like this shot of him too. :)



I don't have any fireworks pictures, but on the night of July 3rd my family all met up at Eaglewood Golf Course to watch fireworks. We think this might become a tradition since it's in our home town. I don't think we watched any other fireworks except for the grocery store kind from the front porch!
