4th of July week full of FUN!

Friday the 2nd we went up to Logan to watch the fireworks. My dad and his wife, ReNae invited all our families to their home for a cook out, train riding, and hangin' out. Then we all pile in the back of pick-up trucks and drive to a reserved spot on the grass by the stadium to watch the fireworks. It is always fun and the kids have a great time playing with all their cousins. We all stayed at my brothers house, they made us a yummy breakfast and then we went out to "The Barn" to swing. Most the kids were going off double boxes which makes them a lot higher, something I have never dared do. Kayli and Tyler both did it. I was nervous watching them, but they did it without fear. Then we went to lunch at Fredrico's. A must every time I go up to Logan. After lunch we went back to my brother's house and the kids ran through the sprinklers. We left so we could get home and go to the Riverton City fireworks. For the actual fourth we didn't do much. But that evening we went to get snow cones and did Pops and Sparklers since all fireworks are banned in our area.

Adobe lets everyone have the week of July 4th off every year, so Tim was home all week, so we planned a full week of fun. Tuesday we went to Cowabunga Bay. It is such a fun water park, perfect for younger kids. Lots of water slides, a "beach style" pool, and a lazy river. The kids loved it. The water is only 3 feet deep at the deepest, so Kayli and Tyler could play without me worrying about them. They especially loved the lazy river. It was a really fun day! Wednesday we stayed home and then took the kids to see Cars 2. Cute movie!!!! Thursday we took Kayli and Tyler to Lagoon, while Zach went to Tim's parents for the day and had a sleepover. Lagoon was a lot of fun with Kayli and Tyler. They went on all the big rides with us and loved it, even Wicked! I was more nervous about that ride than them. It was such a great time with those two. We stayed til close and I think Kayli and Tyler could have stayed longer, but Tim and I were ready to go. Riding some of those rides made me feel old. I got sick on a few, they never used to do that. (SIGH) Super fun day! Friday we took the kids to Tim's parents to play with their cousins while we went to Transformer's 3. Then we had a cook out with Tim's parents. It was a fun week of great memories with our little family.
(Sorry no pics of our adventures, I didn't want to take my camera swimming, or worry about it on the rides.)
