Wyoming Vacation - Part 5
On our second to last day there, we got to do one of our favorite Wyoming things...hiking around Vedauwoo. I have never been there with my kids, so I wasn't sure how they would do at first, but they loved it and were climbing all over the rocks! Thanks goodness we had Cameron there though, with me, my mom and my sister Lindsey, because he was certainly helpful in getting kids down a few times!

Wyoming Vacation - Part 4
Even after all the fun during the day on the 4th, we had some more fun in the evening! We killed time waiting for fireworks by letting the kids play with poppers and sparklers. There may or may not have been some men in our family (ahem, Cameron and Kipp) who also shot off some illegal fireworks in the street. Those crazy guys.
When it was time for fireworks, we loaded up all the kids and took them to the hill behind our house to watch them. They all loved them, and it was so fun that they all got to watch them together!
It was a wonderful 4th of July!

Wyoming Vacation - Part 3
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!
