This 4th of July we headed up to Young for the weekend! The kids had a blast playing with all of their cousins up there and it was very nice to cover up with a blanket to watch fireworks! (On a side note...I bought Derrick his first baseball cap for the trip and I just couldn't get over how grown up he looked in it! SO cute, I love it!) We drove to Heber for their show on the 5th. The Stake President invited the family to join them at the seminary building for a dinner and it was right across the street from where they let the fireworks off. We had awesome front row seats! So close in fact, that one of the last really big ones they shot off fell right behind us...it was a little scary! I was very impressed with the quality and length of the show! It was really good! Derrick was a little scared at first, but talks about seeing green fireworks all the time now! Emma loved it and each new one that went off was her favorite! She especially like the heart shaped ones! She said during the show, "Mom, Santa Clause must hear these!". A little random, but it made me laugh! When we got to Heber it was raining, but it only lasted about 15 minutes and then it was beautiful. It was a little frustrating trying to get out of there. We were set back on a road and just stood still on the road for about 40 minutes before the line of cars even started moving! It was a fun weekend though. Poor Derrick looked like he got beat up in a dark alley by the end of the weekend. He just played really hard and had a few bumps, bruises and scrapes! But, all survived and we had a great time! Happy 4th!
