We had a great 4th of July this year. I was so excited to be in Utah because they always have great firework shows. We started the day off going to the lake with Kris and Missy Wilde. It was so fun. The kids all took turns water skiing and tubing. Porter even went water skiing. I was so sad that I forgot my camera. He was so tiny out there on the big lake just skiing along. It was really fun. Then we came back home and went to my new friend Chantal's family party. Her mom had organized the party and was really into it. She had carnival games for the kids, gunny sack races, a great BBQ, a pie eating contest and then a children's program. It has to be one of the funnest 4th of July's we've had. My kids say the best part was that we got to do our own family fireworks out in the street. (living in AZ for so long, they didn't get to experience that before) We had a great day and loved spending time with old and new friends!
