the 4th . . . a recap

So the 4th is like the best holiday ever. Period. Everyone agree? Good. Now that we are all on the same page, here's a short recap of the 4th for us.

We spent the night out in Lewiston (don't want to miss anything). Somehow the tradition got started that some of my cousins get together the night before the 4th and play Murder in the Dark. Gruesome game but really fun. Then in the wee hours of the the morning, we went to bed in our tent in the back yard. All too soon, we were awakened by the cannon that goes off at 6:00 am. Lovely.

Jason and I had a delicious breakfast courtesy of the the Lewiston Fire Department. Then it was off to the famous parade. We had a lot of fun watching the family around us. Too funny. I think I hiped it up a bit too much for Jason, because he was disappointed in the whole parade. In my own unbiased opinion though, it is the best parade.







We attended the Jan Hall 4th of July party. It was so fun to see everyone and enjoy their company. Thanks Jan and Alyson for letting us come. This collage shows the happenings of the day from the breakfast in the morning to the picnic in the afternoon.Then it was off to Burley to finish off the Firework sales. It was a good day.

We are already counting down the days until the celebration next year.
