July 4th we headed to Soda Springs for their annual parade and carnival. This year we took Grandma Julie and the Nulphs with us. We met up with Grandma and Grandpa Washburn in Grace and headed to the parade first. After loading our bags with candy we headed to the park to jump on bouncy castles, paint faces, eat snow cones, ride the bucket train, and finally relax! 

After the carnival we headed to Grace and had a late lunch at Grandma and Grandpa Washburns house. The kids donned Grandma Beth's old tshirts and played on the slip n slide for the afternoon. After lunch we packed up and headed for the Menan Fireworks. We were lucky enough to park by our cousin AnnMarie Hammon. It was fun to catch up with her family. 

We took a quick family picture before the fireworks started. Unfortunately for me, we are not a photogenic family, so it takes a couple of shots for us to look normal.
