The 4th of July was a big day for us. Everyone in my family was finally in town (after my sisters ran a 5K in Colorado that morning). We kept very busy during the day at the big celebration at the park. Some of the highlights were...
....a demonstration on having sprinkler systems in your home by the fire department. They lit two small mock houses on fire and showed the difference between one with a sprinkler system and one without. Those suckers got HOT and we were just sitting across the street from them. Afterwards, we got to talk with Chase, a firefighter who is a good friend of ours.
We also enjoyed getting free ice cream, and having cousins to enjoy it all with!
Later that afternoon, everyone spent some time playing outside. It was so fun to have all of the cousins together, although it was a bit crazy at times (sorry for the picture overload...I just can't ever narrow it down!)!
It was great to spend such a fun day with the whole family. Wish we could do this all the time!
