4th of July

We were kicked out of our house first thing in the morning by the painters so we headed down to provo and played at a park until Toys R Us opened so we could get Aiden some potty training rewards (yeesh :( not excited for next week but that's another story...). After running some errands we headed up to Teri's to meet everyone for lunch and then we all headed to Park City for the day. It was hot and crowded but not more than expected on the 4th of July, and the kids had lots of fun. First the kids all went on the slides, they had to take the lift up to get to the top.

Aiden loved it and thought he was chasing his cousins on either side of him so he had lots of fun. I probably should have hiked up further for better pictures like the other photographers but sometimes I just let my art suffer so I can be lazy ;P

After the slides the bigger kids went on the roller coaster thing and Aiden found some big rocks to play on.

There was a big field we had the kids play in so the baby could get out and crawl around for a bit. 

After Park City we headed back to Teri's for dinner and some fireworks. Aiden liked the "pop its" the best, but he couldn't throw them hard enough to pop them so we'd drop them on the ground and he'd stomp them haha.

Just pretend the giant idiot in the 4T 4th of July shirt isn't there because I don't even know how to explain that. I'm just glad we weren't on a major road or he probably would have caused some car accidents by the amount of people staring in their rear view mirrors (one girl even came around for a second look. She thought she was being clever but when you do it immediately after you came the first time it's kind of obvious lol ;P)

cute cousins watching the fireworks together

Aiden got bored pretty quick this year for some reason and decided to go back to pop its lol

He wasn't super interested in the Sparklers this year either. Oh well!

Aunt Mandy trying to get Cooper to stand. She just came for a short visit and we of course came down with the flu of death and had multiple painting fiascos and so we didn't get to see her much :( But we are better now and the painting is done (THANK GOODNESS. Pictures soon :).)

Awww Aiden wanted to hold Blakely's hand how cute

Ok let's go!...with Aiden half dragging her around lol...

I could tell when he hit his exhausted point because he start cuddling up to mom and giving me tons of hugs. I wish that's how he always acted when he was tired, much preferable to the crying and mopiness!

It was a fun 4th of July. Always fun to hang out with family!
