Fourth of July

We celebrated Fourth of July a little early this year on the 3rd. There is a golf course near our house which is the University of Colorado's home golf course, and they have a big Fourth of July celebration. It was so nice that it was close to our house and because Jared works for the university they had a roped off section for all the families to sit in with an awesome view of the fireworks. Hailey and her family and my mom also joined us at the golf course. We got there about an hour before dark so we could let Brayden run around and do some of the bouncy slides they had. I was getting a lot of stares because of my huge belly. I heard several people say, "look at her"...oh well.
Brayden had a little fun going through the maze which ended in a slide. This was not his favorite, but he went on it with his dad.
We had a blast watching the fireworks and eating kettle corn. Brayden wasn't too freaked out by the fireworks which was nice. It was a lot of fun and I am really glad we went. The morning of the 4th we had a church party. They served breakfast and had some crazy games that were pretty entertaining to watch and then they had the kids bike parade. Most of the kids decorated their bikes, but not us we are always so last minute we didn't have anything to decorate with. The kids then ride around the hockey rink and wave and then crash into each other because there are so many kids. Brayden still can't reach the peddles so Jared had to push him around the rink. Brayden was having so much fun...
...until he crashed. There was a huge pile up of bikes so Jared tried to miss the pile up and cause Brayden to fall of the bike causing our own accident. He went from time of his life fun to tears.
You can see the tears still running down his face.
He stopped crying when I told him he was going to mess up his firework painting on his cheek. It was a lot of fun; I really like our ward.
