Happy 4th Everyone! This year our 4th of July was spent a little differently than our past ones. We ended up staying home and doing our own thing. Patrick's sister Lacy and her husband JD came up for the weekend to join us and party it up in Logan, UT! We had a blast and this is what went on this weekend...
JD & Lace brought their Wii so we could play...Then we left to go enjoy our outing for the fireworks. We ended up feeling like complete REDNECKS tailgating in the parking lot across the street from the stadium where they do the fireworks, but it was totally worth it! We found 2 spots and parked the truck in one and set up our chairs and things in the other.
While we waited we ate and socialized and played Skip-Bo and listened to the HORRIBLE performances going on in the stadium. (If you watch the video you can hear the girl singing and the clarinets playing .UGH... terrible) And we blew bubbles and threw snaps on the ground to entertain Porter! (Watch video) Poter loved the fireworks! He clapped and even would say whoa and ooo and ahh at times! We enjoyed Logans firework show and think we might do it again another year!

Then the next day since we celebrated the 4th on the 3rd...we went to the Car show they do on the 4th. Instead of a Parade Logan has a Car show the people can enter their cars in and drive down main! It's a pretty big thing up here and we enjoyed it A LOT! Here are some of the cool cars we saw.
This is Porter waiting for the cars...I have to admit the car show isn't really for kids, you know... like a parade, unless they love love cars and know whats going on.
Lotus...SWEET CAR!
Dalorian(sp) they dressed up like back to the future
This was so cool...the whole time they drove on 3 wheels!

I just thought this one was cool... as well as the ones below
After the Car show later that night we did our own firworks...which ended up being pretty crummy. I bought a package of fireworks and they all were in different size boxes and different shapes, but I can say they were all the exact same thing! Glitter, sparkle and pop! WHAT A RIP! That's the last time I buy the fireworks! We still enjoyed ourselves and made the best out of it!
This is what we enjoyed for 45 minutes...now you can enjoy them for 1 second!
This is a video I put together of our 4th of July. It's mostly of us trying to entertain Porter before the fireworks with some Snaps and bubbles, then I added at the end his first time with sparklers later that night! As you watch this movie you'll notice how much he knows and understands things!
