Our fourth of July plans didn't go completely as planned but plan B was worked out and was just as fun. We went out to Denny's to start the day off. How do you entertain three kids while waiting for the food to be served? You take pictures of each other.
We went to Heber after and spend time with my family. I got to shop at the outlet mall with Betsy. Then we headed home for our neighborhood festivities.
I love our new neighborhood! Every year there is a Cul-de-sac of Fire. We had activities throughout the day starting with water games and activities for the kids. That was followed by the bike parade. Lynnlee rode her trike. James rode his bike. They decorated them with pipe cleaners, ribbon, and paper.
We also had a BBQ, kids crafts and fireworks. Lynnlee is sporting the visor she decorated.
This is the first year that my kids were happy for the fireworks. No one got scared and they actually seemed to enjoy it. At the end of the fireworks we walked two houses down and were home.
