Our Little Firecrackers!

One of our traditions is to spend the 4th of July with Grandma and Grandad. They live in a small Wyoming town in the middle of nowhere (literally)! You know you live in the middle of nowhere when the "big city" is amost an hour away and its claim to fame is a Walmart and a McDonalds! :)
It may be a small town, but it is full of big hearted people and we always look forward to our visits.
The day started with a parade, where Granddad drove his "float", an antique tractor.

Like all 4th of July parades, several fire engines rolled through, sirens wailing. Jason was not pleased with the noise!
We spent the rest of the weekend eating too much and enjoying time with family. Justin, Evan and Logan had a great time riding Grandad's four wheeler and other motorized vehicles...



Jason and Sarah also rode the red tractor, but enjoyed Grandad's big orange one even more because it has two seats!
Happy 4th of July!

7 Kind Words:

Sarah said...

Looks like you had a great time!! You always take such wonderful pictures.

Oh, and by the way, Noah and Adam on AAC's list are both connected with New Day. I guess that they are in foster care outside of the main facility.

Blessings,
Sarah
