We celebrated the 4th with our good friends the Barlows, Millers and Gordons. We are so lucky to have such good friends in Texas! Holidays would seem pretty lonely without them, missing out on all the Utah Family Fun. We headed off bright and early to the Fredericksburg Parade. The kids had so much fun watching the parade together. We all had a great time. I love the 4th of July!
All of our girls. The boys are outnumbered and MIA.
Patriotic Makayla
Savannah loved looking for the princesses and waving to them.
Logan liked sword fighting with his flag almost more than waving it.

After the parade, Jared's parents invited us out to their place for a BBQ and to play in the river on their property. We had such a nice time. It felt like we were home with our families.
Loading up to ride down to the river.
Lauren and Makayla riding the "rapids." They screamed the whole way.
Relaxing in the river was such a great way to spend the day! The kids had a blast
and we all had fun visiting and soaking in the sun.
I loved this part of the river. It was a beautiful day!
After playing in the river all day, we went to watch fireworks. It was so nice to sit back with Mike and the kids and watch the fireworks, that I didn't get my camera out again. This is probably a good thing because I don't think I need to add any more pictures to this post.
