Our 4th of July!

Caeden watches our "big show!"

For our Fourth of July celebration, we really didn't do too much. It was a lazy day where we caught up on some housework, then barbecued and then did our own fireworks out on the street. South Jordan has its own "Country Fest" at the end of June, complete with greasy fair food and carnival rides and a free concert in the park (this year they had country singer Darryl Worley - he sings "Have You Forgotten?", "Awful, Beautiful Life," "I Miss My Friend," and "I Just Came Back From a War" to name a few songs) and they have a great fireworks show where we can sit close (and by close, I mean there's ashes in your hair when you leave!) and there's very little traffic. So we get our fill of big fireworks and fair at the Country Fest every year then spend the 4th at home doing our own thing. It's been quite fun, really. Anyway, here's a few pictures of our "fireworks show."
