The 4th and 24th are celebrated pretty much the same every year, which we love. We spend the 4th in Plain City with the Moyes family and the 24th with the Goodrich family (minus last year when they all went to Zions and we stayed home because Justin couldn't get off work). Since it's the same every year, I won't go into a lot of detail but post the pictures here.

Fireworks at Fremont-

| Brynn had completely run out of gas by this point-she fell asleep during the middle of the show |
We sure know how to wear out our kids...Brynn slept all night through the morning. We stayed and went to church the next morning with my parents. They had 9:00 church so I had to wake the kids up to get ready. Brynn woke up a little while I got her dressed, brushed her teeth, and combed her hair but she never fully woke up because she slept all through sacrament meeting too!
Stockton woke up and made it to church just fine but right after the sacrament, he came over to me and told me he felt like he needed to go to sleep. He laid his head down in my lap and went right to sleep and slept the remainder of the meeting.
