Fireworks and Family Time

We had a lot of fun yesterday for the holiday. We went out to lunch, walked around at Ikea, had some friends over for a BBQ, and did fireworks. Deakon loved the fireworks... TOO MUCH! He wanted to hold them and touch the flying sparks and run around the parking lot with Kyle. (We can't light fireworks on the condo grounds so we went to the church parking lot down the street) It was a chore keeping hold of him. Because we live across the freeway from Thanksgiving Point, we walked to a hill by our house and watched the fireworks show they put on. It was great because we didn't have to fight crowds and we only had to sit by 2 other families.
