4th of July

We started of the 4th of July weekend enjoying a fabulous Philly cheese steak dinner at our friends the Dolls house. Paige and Alyssa are only 2 weeks apart in age and were instant best friends. They joined hands all on their own and walked all over the place.

Next we went to visit Grandpa Dan and Grandma Dev at their campsite in Island Park. Paige really liked to look at the crawdads that they had caught. Despite mosquitoes big enough to pack him off, Cam totally enjoyed the great outdoors!

Next came the 4th of July parade and park party. The kids both enjoyed the parade, especially all the free candy. Paige got to hold her first snake and wasn't even a little nervous.

We ended the night with a BANG at the Idaho Falls firework show. It was spectacular as always. The kids were both really into it for about 20 mins and then were both fast asleep by the end. They even slept through the grand finale (don't ask me how)!
