4th of July--My Favorite Holiday

The 4th of July has always been my favorite holiday and this year didn't disappoint because...

1.  A couple days before the 4th we had a sisters GNO and painted our toes and nails.

2.  Case participated in the annual Freedom Festival 5K.  He had so much fun I think he'll make it a tradition. 

3.  I got to dress this little guy in his cute 4th of July outfit.  I even got him baby TOMS to match:)  

4.  Thanks to a few family members, who woke up at 4:00 a.m. to save seats for the parade, we had great shaded seats for the parade.  Mason ended up falling asleep through most of the parade.  Maybe he'll enjoy it more next year.  



5.  On our way home from the parade we stopped and got a delicious sno cone.  

6.  We had a great time celebrating the 4th of July at the traditional Crandall family 4th of July BBQ.  



7.  We continued our tradition of tying quilts for Primary Children's Hospital.  

 8.  We ended the night with an exciting, intense show of fireworks at Amy and Jared's house.  Mason slept through all the noise and excitement. 

 9.  Because some of the family ran in the Freedom Festival 5K we didn' make it to the balloons that morning.  So we decided to carry on our celebrating to the next day and go see the balloons. 

 We had a great 4th of July, as always.  We're so sad it's over.
