This has been a party in the works for a year now. Tara and Jeff hosted this year. We would all come up the night before the 4th and tent it in their backyard. In the morning we would have breakfast and then head on over to the parade route. After the parade we would head back to their house for lunch and relaxation. Then head over to Davis for the fireworks. It sounded like a great plan and so everyone was pretty excited that it actually happened.
Grandpa and Grandma and even grandma B came up for the nights events. Grandpa Gene even brought fireworks. JJ was in charge of lighting them. Right there JJ was in heaven. The kids loved watching the fireworks. (except Ellie, not sure why). It was quite the show. Thanks Grandpa Gene for that.
After fireworks we all headed to the backyard to set up for the big sleepover. I wasn't able to stay because of Emry. This was a total bummer for me since I love to have sleepovers. Jeff and Tara were nice enough to let us use their backyard while they went inside and slept in their beds ;) It was fun to see Aunt Julie totally get down to "Call Me Maybe". JJ and Emma thought that was pretty awesome. The kids had a great time. I had to leave so I missed out on the fun. Bummer. I heard there wasn't much sleep going on. I slept just fine in my soft bed...what's their problem. ;)
My little knuckleheads having a blast.
