Happy 4th of July!


We had a wonderful 4th of July. It was especially fun because Zach was old enough to understand what was going on. We first went to the parade, which was awesome for so many reasons, the cool cars, the hip hop dancers, belly dancers, people coming down the sides giving candy to little kids, big snake, little ponies. My favorite part was being with the neighbors and having the parade last only an hour! We missed it last year because we arrived at the end, because we had never been to a parade that lasted an hour. Grants favorite part was the otter pop, his new favorite treat.

That night we had a ward get together which is always a lot of fun. I love our ward here in Lansing, there are a lot of students in the ward with small kids. Lets just say Mothers group is awesome! We tie dyed some shirts, Zach was right in the the thick of things and especially loved the color purple on his shirt. I had to add a little more blue when he was done with it to make it more manly. Zach loved the fireworks and even got to light one, after he lit, it he ran away laughing, then pointed to the firework and said, "I did it!"




Grant on the other hand did not know what to think of it all. Let's just say there was some crying involved.


On Sunday, it was a repeat of what we did the previous day, except we stayed up to see our neighbors put on an amazing fireworks display. Zach loved every minute of it and after every firework would say, "Again Daddy" or "More Daddy" After about an hour the fireworks stopped, so we waited around for an hour more, hoping more would come, but they never did.



It was a wonderful 4th of July!
