Just me and the Neilson boys

We had lots of fun on the fourth of July this year. We started out the day with the parade in Parowan. We LOVE the parade in Parowan. It's shorter and they throw tons more candy. It's definitely the way to do. I took my camera like a good mom, but the battery was dead. So the only picture I have is this one:
We ended up with like 6 frisbees even after we shared with Addi and the Adams's

Then we went to Brad's for lunch like we always do. Here's another reason why the Parowan parade is awesome. It started 30 minutes after the Cedar parade and we got to Brads just barely after Josh's family. See it really is shorter. Tracen is now an expert at sipping from a straw. That's Josh's coke he's sneaking while he doesn't pay attention.
After that we spent the afternoon at Grandpa and Grandmas. We played and built things with popsicle sticks and Trevor sprayed everyone with the hose. We ended with dinner.

After that we decided to try out the Brian Head fireworks for something new and exciting. That was insanity. Imagine thousands of people from mostly California and Nevada all in Brian Head. Probably 50% of them are intoxicated and they all stopped at the Smoke shop on the way here. By the way I think there's like 4 cops in BrianHead (sorry Dan lol!) Josh called Dan and told him it was out of control. Ha ha. Bottlerockets were hitting buildings and one set of drunken people were shooting roman candles at another set of people. Josh and I laid our duck and cover plans and then sat back and enjoyed the show. We lived and it was fun.
