4th of July

We had a great 4th of July. My brother and sister-in-law came into town with their son and we joined them at my Mom and Dad's place for a pancake breakfast followed by mid-day swimming. We were joined by more friends and family for dinner and the Boulder City fireworks show from my parents' back yard. After that, Dad had bought a whole box full of very large fountains that we set off out front. The kids and I ended up spending the night because we didn't want to fight the traffic, but Darin decided it would be best to travel home that night because he had to be at our ward in the morning. It took him an extra hour to get home that night! The kids and I went to church with Mom and Dad and Darin joined us later that evening for Dinner.

Harrison

Harrison got brave and decided to slide down the last 3 feet of the slide, then Chad carried him up to the top and forced him down the entire slide. Harrison went down several more times by himself the rest of the day. He says he is going to try the mountain next!
