The Fourth...of July Activities

For the 4th of July weekend, we got the chance to see the hot air balloons in Driggs. They do this every year but it starts at 6 a.m. and let's be honest, none of us has ever volunteered to get up and leave by 5 a.m. to go see big balloons. So, this year when we had to be in  Driggs for an All-Star Baseball Tournament by 7:00 a.m., we got to see the hot air balloons as we drove by. That totally counts!

After we watched Hunter play his baseball in Driggs, Steve and I raced back and participated in the annual 4th of July Softball Tournament in Ashton. So much fun!! I learned just how out of shape I am and my body kept reminding me of this for the entire following week.
 
Hunter was bummed that he couldn't play in the softball tourney. Instead, he would try to time it right and catch the foul balls on my aunt's bike. No luck, but it was fun watching him try. (Picked up on some girls though ;)
We went to the Ashton parade and got our share of things thrown at us.
The kids found a great way to stay cool! (And they were sure to keep everyone within a 20 foot radius cool as well!)
I swear he was clean when we left the house!
