4th of July / Jones Reunion

Jared's parents and grandmother came up for Reese's baby blessing. They spent the following week here and so we made a little family reunion out of it.

We spent the 4th of July playing and eating at our house


Slip and Slide


Mackayla, Sophie, and Lexie on the swings


I made a flag cake, and Mackayla really wanted to sing happy birthday to our Country...outside (of course) so that the wind could blow out the candle.


Dinner time


Kid table


The morning of the 4th, our family headed down to Provo to catch the big parade. We got great seats and the weather was perfect.

Putting the flag up that morning


Time for fireworks! The Nelsons left early except for Sophie. She stuck around with Papa and Nini, and enjoyed the show with us. The kids watched from the back of Jared's truck. Jacob only watched a few, and then was so tired he asked to go to bed.





Sparklers









Happy Birthday America!
