Monday

4th of July!


We did the North Ogden parade in the morning which is always fun for the kids. Maci lost her green balloon and now she can't seem to get over it. Poor little girl.
We always have the best seats because Jim & Danell my brother and sister in law save a spot for all of us. Thanks to them the girls never miss a float. We saw Shad and Cayden who are so cute and have a bundle of energy.

We went to Cabelas which is Ben's favorite place to eat. He loves their game meat sandwiches. He enjoys trying new food, this time he had wild boar. I just can't handle wild tasting meat and it never looks good. The girls tried the boar, Maci liked it Kira not so much.

We met Papa in Provo so he could take me and Maci up to his cabin in the woods. I always enjoy going up to his house it's so relaxing.

Ben and Kira went to the Stadium of Fire featuring Miley Cyrus, Blue Man Group and totally awesome fireworks. Ben says you haven't seen fireworks until you've been to the Stadium of Fire.

We had a nice weekend and hope everyone else did too.

Kira is now off to San Diego with Emily's family and Papa and Mums. I'm jealous, wish I could see her enjoy all the attractions. Maybe next time.
