Fourth of July Celebrations

This year for the Fourth we went to the parade in Oakley.  We had a good time!  After the Parade we went Geo Caching up Mirror Lake we stopped at the Provo River Falls.  We had a good day!

Waiting for the Parade!
Getting the candy!(the favorite part of the parade)
This was my favorite parade entry!  I loved that the horse was wearing clown pants with suspenders!
Mike walked across the river at Provo River falls.  We went for a drive up there about the end of May(I forgot my camera that day) spring run off was so high it was amazing to see the difference!
The kids found this Geo Cache!  They get so excited to see what is in them and what they are going to take.
Happy 4th!

This is the Place Heritage Park

On Wednesdays the Heritage Park's Admission is only $2.00 I thought I would take advantage of the price and take the kids down.  Justin had a great time he was so excited to do each of the activities.  Garrett not so much he was being shy when the pioneer people tried to talk to him.  It was a great day! 

Justin loved this little string toy.  It is made to imitate milking a cow.  He was actually pretty good at it. 

He finally talked Garrett into doing it with him. 
Justin loved this game.  You throw the bean bag from one side of the can and turn the stick and try to catch it with the other side!
This string game was Garrett's favorite!
Each of them got to wash laundry on a board and hang it out to dry! Justin love beating the rug to get the dirt and dust out of it!
We seen a few baby bunnies.  They boys are trying chase it!
Justin got an old fashion shave.  We couldn't talk Garrett into sitting in the chair for one.
They did sit in the school house for a while and listen to the teacher try to teach them the alphabet!
They got to dip candles Garrett didn't want anything to do with it!
We had a good time it was fun to let the kids see some of the things the pioneers did!
