The 4th of July Weekend!

The 4th of July Weekend was so busy this year!

We had lots of visitors!

Uncle Derrick, Aunt Jess, Dillon, and Braxton came up from Utah!

And Aunt Melanie came from Boise!

Dillon with his new cousin Collin!

Aunt Jenny with Braxton!

Justin playing with his nephew Braxton!

The morning of the 3rd (the day of the parade) I put red and blue hair gel in the boys hair!

Traceon's hair was a little too long on top for spiking, so I had to trim in up!

FIRST HAIR CUT!

I made the boys matching shirts this year! It was a fun little project for me! And don't they look stinkin' adorable!

Since we live in Idaho Falls...close enough to walk to the parade...well, that's just what we did!

Melanie and I loaded the little guys up and walked. It was a little chily but, it felt good! Burned some calories, got fresh air, and saved the environment a little bit by not driving!

Aydan at the parade!

Look at that COOL hair!

The little bud...waving his flag!

Grandpa Snyder and Aydan!

Cool pic of the helicopter!

The horses...I love them...they're so pretty!

Free CREAMIES all around!

This was my FAVORITE float! It says PROUD NOW with an American solider in her uniform and PROUD THEN with an American soldier in his uniform from back in the day!

It gave me goose bumps because where did that America go?

What happened to working hard for our country instead of taking it for granted?

What happened to working together towards something that we are proud of?

What happened to a society where everybody helps everybody out?

What happened to the pride in fighting for our RIGHTS and FREEDOMS?

Bring back the old America, and the old American way!!

Lets make it a country to be pround to live in again!!

Oh how I love our Aydan!

This is him imitating tricks that people were doing in the parade!

He thought he needed to be an entertainer too!

He also thought he would hand out chips and candy to people, just like the people that were handing out flyers and things in the parade!

Silly kid!

What a great memory!

After the parade we went to a BBQ at Uncle Bens' house! (Not really an Uncle...but pretty close! And an awesome family friend!)

After that the boys and I headed to Grandpa Polson's house for some good playin' time!

Here are all three of the oldest Polson boys playing the piano at the same time!

They sat there for quite awhile...entertaining themselves! So cute!

Dillon wore an AWESOME SHIRT....in support for his Uncle Justin!

"My Uncle Defends Freedom in the U.S. Army!"

After Grandpa's house we went home and did dinner and fireworks there!

Trace happy as can be!

KFC!

CUTE KIDS!

SPARKLERS!

Dad let Aydan help light a few fireworks! It made Aydan's day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!
