July 4 2012

We had a great fourth of July here in Colorado. We started out the day driving to Ridgway, CO to deliver Kyle's motorcycle that he sold. By the time we got there it was raining, so we ate lunch at the True Grit restaurant. We enjoyed the cooler weather in the mountains for the afternoon, and then headed home. We got some Cold Stone Creamery ice cream for desert and then headed to the local park for the fireworks display. They had cancelled the show, but decided the day before to have it. Since most other fireworks shows in the area had been cancelled because of the fire ban, ours was super busy.

Here are the boys at the park.

Aren't they cute? Smiles are overrated.

Cole taking a nap before the show.
Landon playing on the phone before the show.


By the time the show started, it also started to rain.

We were pretty close to the fireworks, which was great for watching but not so much for taking pictures.


I only snapped a few pictures before it started raining. I didn't want the camera to get wet, so I put it away.
Better luck next year on the pictures, but we enjoyed the fireworks all the same. 
We needed the rain! Happy Independence Day!

It is good to hear that y'all got some rain. Too bad it was on Independence Day, but rain is rain. Glad you had a good day. We miss being around everyone. Has life slowed down any?
