Happy 4th of July!

Our 4th of July was a little unorthdox this year....(as far as the Wilson traditions go!) but we did have a great time.

We woke up at the crack of dawn to go to our ward 4th of July breakfast. (Yes it was still hot!!) That is why you get snow cones right after breakfast!!! It was great pancakes, hash browns, fruit and the best part was I didn't have to cook or clean up!! The old fire truck was there we took a few rides....tried to stay cool. It was so hot I couldn't believe it and was grateful for the mist of water that hit when the truck sprayed the kids from the fire hose. 500 gallons of water gone in a minute it was pretty sad. The kids didn't mind too much because they then played in the sprinklers. We got to visit with friends and have water fights. Luckily I got to stay out of those!! We had a great time.

We headed home and cooled down for a bit then packed up and went to the pool! It was fun, Tanner went down the water slides forever, and me and the girls played in the water. Paige loves to sit on the steps and climb up and down then give us a smile and dive off. She is taking after Kylie in that department!! We met some friends there and had a blast. 2 hours later we headed home for some naps. It was much needed the kids played hard and believe it or not Jason even fell asleep....what a miracle!!

We then headed for a fun night or wii and burritos. I know burritos on the 4th not the usual 4th food, but it was good and we had a great time. The wind picked up so we weren't able to let the kids have fun with sparklers but I don't think that they cared. They had a great day!!
