happy 4th of July

for the last couple of years, we seem to always be in Idaho for the 4th of July.  and we are making little fun traditions there!

 i feel like it wouldn't be the 4th now without the Rexburg Parade

 after the parade, we set out for a massive water balloon war....too bad we weren't that great at the balloon launcher! (except Kayla...she was a rock star launcher)

and the war continued back at the house

and what would visiting ID be without a ride in fast freddy.  poor blaine is getting too big...but it looks just right for Ty!

 of course we have our annual silly picture of uncle T.Jay...this one is a keeper for sure

 we adding something new this year...pogo stick jumping.  Kayla was the reining champ with over 300 pogo jumps.  Julie was a far second with 150(ish) and i was even further with only 120(ish).  i will be practicing for next year!

 homemade icecream.  ty loved helping grandpa put the salt in the ice

 and lastly piling in the back for grandpa's truck to watch firworks

happy 4th of July!
