Happy 4th of July!!!!!

I just love Holidays! I love that Taylor gets to stay home from work and hang out with us!
Our ward always does a 4th of July breakfast and bike parade for the kids so we headed over there yesterday morning. The kids were really excited to decorate their bikes for the parade. A few days ago we went to our friend Heidi's house and painted 4th of July t-shirts as well. They came out pretty cute! Cody started the parade but about 1 minute into it, drops his scooter in the middle of the parking lot and runs in the opposite direction. I guess he got bored!



We got together with some friends in the afternoon and had a BBQ at the park. We had a lot of fun chatting it up with other couples while our children played. I love that in Albuquerque you can have a party outside in the middle of the day and not die of heat stroke! Around 8:30 it started to get dark and immediately there were tons of fireworks going off. It was neat to sit in the middle of the park grass and watch tons of fireworks all over the sky! I love that everyone can buy fireworks here and play with them. We did not have to drive anywhere, search for parking, or fight through large crowds of people just to enjoy a firework show!
