Office Barbeque

Last night we had an office barbecue. It was a lot of fun and Madi and Gabe had a great time making new friends. The kids didn't want to go home last night and they want to go back every night this week, except Sunday.

Of course....the helmet.

But it looks like his fashion trend is catching on.

Madi made friends with Lauren and they danced and danced on the trampoline together.

Madi was disappointed in one thing....barbecue. I told her we were going to an office barbeque adn she was excited. She loves barbeque....ribs and chicken. She told me that next time we are going to a barbeque with hamburgers and hotdogs, I should tell her we are having hamburgers and hotdogs, not barbeque.

4th of July Parade

It's been years since I had been to the 4th of July Parade, and have still never watched it. This year I walked in the parade with Madi. She helped pass out fliers and throw candy with Miss Idaho Falls, Kelsie Roper and some of the 2011 contestants. Madi walked pretty much the entire 3 mile route and she had a ball, she even asked if she could be in the parade next year.

Kelsie is one awesome young lady. So talented, sweat, beautiful and simply amazing.

To finish off the day, we went swimming at grandma Valerie's, watched a baseball game (so American) and then watched a bit of the fireworks from the less crowded Community Park. It was a great truly day.
