After our ward 4th of July breakfast we went swimming at our pool. We had the place to ourselves! It was so nice and relaxing. The kids had a blast swimming with both Mommy and Daddy.Grandma & Papa Bellows watching fireworks with the kids at my parents house.

We had a great 4th of July this year. We went to our ward breakfast in the morning. The food was yummy and the kids loved playing outside on the church grounds with all their friends afterwards. Then we went swimming as a family at our pool. We had the whole pool to ourselves. It was wonderful. Then for dinner we had Ryan's parents over for homemade barbecued pizza's. They turned out soooooooo good. The pizza dough from Trader Joe's is the best and is only $1.29/pack. It was a lot of work to barbecue each pizza but so worth it. Then everyone went to the movies and saw UP. It was really good and the kids seemed to like it as well. It was Dalton's 1st movie. He did really good and loved the big screen and eating popcorn on his little tray. After the movie we just had time to drive to my parents house for the firework show. Their house has an incredible view of the whole city. You can see the fireworks perfect from their backyard. The best part: No crowds! This was the 1st year we actually kept the kids up to see the fireworks. They enjoyed them and we all had a great day. I think we might just let them stay up again next year!
