I'm not sure how many people know this about me, but I am a nut for the 4th of July. I love it! Christmas is my favorite favorite no matter what. But Christmas comes with quite a bit of pressure. It's Christmas. You've waited for it all year long. The 4th of July just pops up! It's there before you know it! And then it's time for sparklers, firework shows, BBQs, swimming, putting together the perfectly non-tacky red, white, and blue outfit. . . it can't be beat.
We had such a fun day with the Scotts. Hiking to Cecret lake in Alta and then hiking down through gorgeous wildflowers and scenery, lunch at a restaurant in Snowbird that was right on the side of the mountain, seeing People Like Us, and a delicious BBQ dinner. Then. We saw. The. Most. Amazing. Fireworks. Ever. Matt's parents live in a neighborhood that's set up above the valley, so we had a view of just about every fireworks show in Utah county! We were close to a couple of big professional shows but we also got to enjoy the random aerials that people set off in the neighborhoods. God bless America and our love of colorful explosives.
