I know it has been almost a month since the 4th of July, however I still wanted to post some pictures and videos of it. I love Independence Day!!! It seriously is one of my favorite holidays, second only to Christmas.
We usually celebrate the 4th by going down to my parents in Mt. Pleasant in the morning to enjoy their parade. The parade down there is closer to what I grew up with. It is your small town parade. They still throw candy and hand out popcycles, the lines down the street are only one person deep and you don't have to camp out a day before just to get a descent seat. In fact my sister sets up lawn chairs along the street for us and we enjoy the parade sitting in the shade under the big tree in front of the church every year, while the kids run for candy as they throw it from the floats. It is so fun!

After the parade we usually head back to Provo to enjoy a BBQ with Jeremy's family and then Colby usually lights his fireworks in the street for us and then we go to the backyard and watch the fire works from the Stadium of Fire.
This year was a little different. Instead of watching the fireworks from the backyard Jeremy surprised me and Emy and Averi with tickets to go to the Stadium of Fire. I have always wanted to experience it from inside the stadium. In fact I honestly believe that the Stadium of Fire is one for the bucket list of every American. The spirit of patriotism is so strong there. To top it all off the JONAS BROTHERS were performing this year. Anyone who knows anything about me knows how much I love the Jo Bros, uh uh, I mean knows how much my girls love them.
IT WAS AWESOME.
