Fourth of July

The 4th of July fell on a Wednesday this year so it was a little harder to make a trip anywhere, but we had a great time just at home. The temperatures have been over 100 for the past week making any plans outdoors miserable! On Tuesday, the 3rd, we went to Shilo to see the fireworks. We met up with Josh and Sarah Shank and their family as well as the Deah and her family. They had great fireworks but it was REALLY hot. By the time we got home it was 11:30 so we had some tired kids the next day.
On the 4th we went to the Coralville parade and sat at Jessica and Tom Dunn's house. They had a tent and a slip and slide for the girls. We were glad for both! Then in the evening we had a bunch of friends over to celebrate my birthday and watch the fireworks from our house. We had pizza and dairy queen cake! Again it was a late night but we had a lot of fun.
