We had a wonderful of July this year! Provo really knows how to do it when it comes to the 4th. The whole time we have lived here we haven't been to the 4th of July morning parade. Nate went over at 4am to camp out a spot and got lucky with a great one right on University!
Another event of note is that Nate had a beard for awhile. I loved it! I like him without it too. It's just fun to switch it up once and awhile.
Scott absolutely loved the parade! He waved at all the "princesses", danced to the marching bands, got excited about the horses, and loved the free stuff they threw out.
Nate's Mom came in town for the 4th of July which was really fun! Emily, Mike and Richard's Mom all joined us for the parade.
Later that afternoon we all met up at the Beans for an awesome BBQ! I am still dreaming of the farm stand corn on the cob, watermelon, and cantaloupe we had. Not to mention steak and homemade ice cream!
After dinner we lit off some fireworks in the street while waiting for it to get dark enough for Stadium of Fire. Nate loves lighting home fireworks since he never got to do them as a kid in California. So fun!
Nate's office is right near the stadium so just like last year we camped out in the parking lot to watch fireworks. The Beans, Mike, Emily, Nate's Mom, Wade, and the McKells all joined us!
Scott was more scared of the fireworks this year than last year! Last year he just got really quiet and watched them. He was slightly terrified this year. Luckily he got used to it about halfway through the show.

This looks so fun! What a cute family you have. Also, I that first picture makes me think you would look really good with hair that length...
Oh my gosh. That looks like such a dream! Also, Nate looks like he could be from Coarsegold with that beard (I mean that in a good way, obv.)!! Burly Mountain Man!!
