Celebrating the 4th in ShowLow

We headed up to ShowLow last Thursday and it was such a great time. Stayed at my sister's house and loved every minute of it. As soon as we got there, Camdon found this frog and thought it was the coolest thing ever.
Until Trevon told him he could get warts, then he immediately put it down and wanted nothing to do with it.
We got to go and watch Kamrielle cheer at half time of the alumni football game. She had attended a cheer camp that week and this was their big performance.


Here she is doing her 'turkey leg jump'

It was really cute and so fun to watch. She is taking after her Aunt Marcy.
Saturday was the big parade. I always love to go and this year was no exception. Here we are waiting for it to start.
The big boys!
Jaron, Caden & Trevon

LoraLeigh's family minus Caden.
Carder loves horses and makes the cutest horse sound. He was pretty excited at all of the horses in the parade. He is pointing for his Dad to take him closer.
Our family at the parade, LL had a hard time getting a good one because someone is always making a face.
See what I mean?
Vinnie set up a wrestling ring and they had a few wrestling matches.

He had to get in on it and show them that he still had some moves.
This picture cracks me up with Jaron over his shoulder.
Then they were on to a game of 'wall ball'
Not sure what exactly that is but I do know they had fun.


Vinnie, I'm worried about you......
Need I say more?
Then we were off to watch the fireworks.
A great show as always. Here are the boys in the back of Vinnie's truck.
Our gang
Carder fell asleep mid-show. Poor guy, it was late.
Isn't he just adorable though? Love that little boy.
On Sunday we went to a BBQ at my Aunt Patsy's house. This is my Dads sister. We got to visit with lots of family that we hadn't seen for awhile. It was alot of fun but just not long enough.
It started to rain pretty hard while the kids were outside and they had to make a quick run for cover. It was so beautiful out there in Vernon.

It was another memorable holiday, thanks everyone! Thanks to the Wyatt's especially for letting us stay with them. We always feel right at home!

That was great! It was a fun weekend. Great food, family to visit and fun things to do! By the way its called "butt ball" not "wall ball". I think those boys (including our big boys~husbands) had a lot of fun the whole time! Looking forward to a visit to your place soon!
