Lindsey Unedited: It was a Red Hot Fourth!

The fourth of July was a hot day! Manuel had a soccer game to watch so I took the kids to the Kaysville parade and sat by my neighbors. It was along walk to the spot by the fire station but at the end of the parade I learned why that was the best spot! It was the longest parade I have ever been to. Almost 2 and a half hours - but at the end the city has a giant water fight. The fire station turns on all their hoses and sprays the crowd. Then fire trucks drive through the street and spray the crowd while shooting fireworks off the truck. Other floats come through and they spray everyone as well. Then all the bystanders get out their water guns and spray everyone as well. It's a good, wet time!

After the parade, Grandma Bev came up. We had a BBQ in the backyard and then we went and saw the Layton City fireworks. The next morning we went to Jeremiah's in Ogden and had breakfast. Then we went to the Hill Air Force Base museum. After that, we went home and the kids filled up the pool and cooled down. It was a fun weekend!!

See that little dot in the sky? There was a giant thing on fire flying across the sky. It looked like a UFO on fire. It never came down but continued to float up and westward.
