Independance Day!!!

For the Holiday Sharifa and the kids went up to Idaho because Steve had to work and there wasn't any family around town. They went to the parade with Grandma T and Grandpa Steve and really had an enjoyable time. There were a lot of really cool floats and the kids go a lot of candy to get them on a sugar rush. Later that day they came home so that they could spend a little time with daddy at the fireworks show. It turned out to be a great show and Ethan really enjoyed it!! Daisy was a little jumpy at the big boom sounds, but she never cried! What an amazing little girl!!! We hope you had a very happy Independence Day and we are very grateful to live in such a great country!!! Thank you all that keep this country safe and free!!!
We thought this was a great float to honor all our heroes!

Ethan in his red, white, and blue gear.


Daisy loves her new flag.



This float was done by a lot of different religions together. Sharifa's parent's stake was apart of putting this together! There were a lot of other blankets made, but they wanted to use the blankets that had red, whit , and blue.



We thought it was cool to see the horses decked out for the season!



Airplane came by during the parade. Ethan thought it was great to see them fly by.



Daisy and Ethan switching places, Ethan loves to be pushed by Daisy and she loves to push him! In the back are Sharifa's parents.



Daisy dancing to the music!

Daisy poured water all over her outfit at the end so we had to let her run around naked so that it could dry. Silly girl!!



Ethan enjoying riding the tricycle that mom used to ride when she was his age.

I loved all of the pictures. The fourth in Idaho is truly the best. But I'm glad you got to see the fireworks with Steve. Let's meet up again soon! xo Oh, and your kids were dressed so cute for the fourth! I love the picture of Ethan looking at the fireworks, he looks so much like Steve in that shot!
