4th of July Parade

What a great 4th of July!!! We were lucky enough to have the Provo Freedom Festival 4th of July on our street this year! Austin, Wes and their buddies in the neighborhood set up camp the night before, pulling an all nighter with movies and games (Monopoly during sunrise). It was weird letting them roam the streets with strangers as everyone was picking their spots to set up chairs and tents for the parade at 4:59am. I didn't get much sleep either bc I was worried about them, and up feeding Rex anyway. How exciting it was to see so many brake lights and people coming through our neighborhood to be part of the awesome parade, all the way up to the new temple even! Abu and Tio Gavin came to spend the day, and we looked at all of Gavin's medals from the Warrior Games. We had fresh cotton candy and icees from the Lambs who had set up a tent in our driveway, we loved all the great marching bands, the Tanner and Haws family sat with us (with breakfast) and I could just go let Rex take a nap when he got tired while the festivities continued! We ended the day with a tasty Fried Chicken Fest at the Asletts house. Yum.
