Utah Trip Part 3: Happy Independence Day!!!

This is the second year in a row we have been in Utah to celebrate Independence Day and we had a blast.  I think we might need to make this a tradition as long as we are living away from home.  The fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays.  I love the homemade ice cream, fireworks, swimming, and spending time with family. 

This year my family left town for the fourth of July, but we had a blast celebrating with the Knudsen’s!  Since the fourth was on a Sunday and we were leaving, we celebrated on Saturday the third.  We started off by going swimming.  Then our crew headed back to the Knudsen’s for a BBQ and fireworks.

This is our attempt to get a picture of Max and his cousins.  It was a challenge to get everyone to hold still and look forward at the same time.  Even with suckers they wouldn’t hold still.  These are the best we got:  IMG_4353-1IMG_4337-1

Max thought the fireworks were pretty awesome.  He kept saying “woa!”  I love his expression in this one!
