Happy 4th of July! For church on Sunday we decided to dress in patriotic attire. Everybody loved Luke's blue suit. He had it custom made on his mission in Chile. He likes any excuse to wear it.
Because it has been so hot and dry and there are forest fires, all fireworks have been banned in the county. The parade is about all the 4th of July celebration that we got.
We were missing the Idaho Dairymen's Association truck that hands out free chocolate milk, but this float was the next best thing!
Free steak samples! We love beef :)
The tail end of the parade was a dozen or so fire trucks. Lots of sirens. They went crazy throwing candy, frisbees, and spraying us all with water. We were at the very front of the parade and we were pretty sure they would run out of candy before the end.
One fire truck went crazy with the cinnamon bears. I love cinnamon bears!
They had a BBQ in the city park that we went to check out after the parade but decided 8 dollars for a hot dog was a little more than we wanted to spend. We did take some fun pictures in the playground area which is an old west town replica. Pretty cool.
Since the fireworks are banned and the radio stations refuse to play patriotic music, we decided to watch The Sandlot which has fireworks and baseball. How more American can you get?
