I'm Proud to Be an American....

For the weekend of the 4th, we headed to the cabin w/ Jeff's family. On Saturday we left from there and drove to Provo to meet up w/ my brother Keith and his wife Stacia for fireworks. We ended up going to the large field in between the Provo temple and Missionary Training Center to watch the Stadium of Fire Fireworks! It ended up being a great spot and an awesome show. However, the traffic was so bad, we didn't get home till 1am!!!

LOVE this picture....good job Stacia!


We were so happy that Alayna LOVED the fireworks! She wasn't scared by the noise and just sat and watched the show for a while despite being VERY tired!

I know this holiday is not just about the fireworks and BBQ's. I'm so thankful to live in America. I've never lived anywhere else, and so I'm sure there are many things about this country that I take for granted, but I am humbled at the blessing it is to live here! I'm thankful for those who have sacrificed to much to make America what it is.
