Happy 4th of July!

We had a great 4th of July this year. Who could ask for anything more than going to the good ol' Magna Parade and fireworks?! Magna. I know it sounds pretty bad but really Magna puts on a good 4th of July celebration. We love it because Magna is where both our families have lived forever and still do. Magna is just our tradition and now starting the same with Hayden.


Hayden really enjoyed the parade with all of the candy throwing and all! Then we had a BBQ at Nate's Grandpa's house who lives right in front of the parade route. Quite convenient huh! My Great Grandma used to live just up the street from the parade route and that's where we used to have our family gatherings on the 4th but since she has passed away we were kind of at a loss until Nate became part of our family and they changed the parade route to go right in front of his Grandpa's house. It has worked out perfect. So now, not only does all of his family get together but I invite mine too!!



We ended up at the Magna park for the fireworks that evening. Hayden wasn't a real big fan of the big fireworks but I think all in all he enjoyed the day!

Uncle Curtis marching in the parade... There was a BIG break in the parade so he thought he would be a part of it to keep us entertained. Good ol' Uncle Curtis, he is always good for some entertainment!
