4th of July.... 2008

What a long weekend!!!! Our weekend started On Thursday the 3rd when we went over to Marsing and watched their fireworks over the Snake River... that was so fun! That was the first time Rylan had really seen the big fireworks and been old enough to know what was going on. He was a little scared they were going to get him... but mostly it was fun to see his reactions to them.

On Friday we went to the Parade in Wilder at noon and then the demolition derby that evening.... this is the boys absolute favorite thing to do. Josh is very involved in making the derby happen so the boys think it is extra cool to watch. After watching the derby Jace can recite every car and every hit for months... the kid is amazing with the information he gathers. After the derby they had a cool firework show.... the kids then went to grandmas and Josh and I got to go out for awhile.

On Saturday we had a big BBQ at Joshs parents house with a Horseshoe tournament and some fireworks of our own. By this time though I think me and the boys were pretty well worn out... Rylan didn't even get to see the fireworks and he was out!

All in all it was a great weekend... just not much downtime.
