the fourth



When I heard that Centerville was doing all their fourth of July festivities on Saturday I was a little bugged. But it actually turned out to be one long party all weekend long!
Saturday started out with the Centerville 5k, followed by the parade, Hot dog BBQ at the Green's residence. After a quick nap to recharge it continued with a pool party/more BBQ at the Salmon residence. Last minute Sunday night I decided to run the Kaysville 5k Monday morning, I was trying to make up for all the food I gorged on all weekend. We then took Cash to "Cars 2" and lunch. Later that day we hung out at "Rancho". Rode horses, played with the bunnies, chickens, rode the tractor, and picked veggies. To end all the celebrating we watched Davis High's fire works.
My favorite things about this fourth of July:
*Watching Cash figure out that the candy being thrown at the parade as actually for grab and keep!
*The food. Oh my the food. Morgan and Amy did an awesome Hot dog bar complete with the Phili cheese dog , chili dog, Chicago dog, and a taco dog. Homemade ice cream, and ribs by my Mom. By far my favorite "Food Holiday".
*Cash clapping at every exciting part during "Cars"
*Cash absolutley loving Rancho. He has always liked it, but now he is at the age where is really starting to love it. He was loving the bunnies, and kept yelling "yee haa" riding the horse.
*While watching fireworks up at Davis, we could practically see all the firework shows throughout the whole valley.
