We had a very fun 4th of July. We went to the parade in Provo which was really fun. Tom and Lesa always find a good spot and are nice to save us a seat. The parade was good and the weather was great because it was a bit overcast that morning so we weren't sitting in the sun feeling like we were baking! An insurance company usually has free goodies and this year they had yummy ice cream cones that were a hit! Later that day we went to Grandpa and Grandma Rich's for a BBQ. When we got there one of their "deer" friends was napping in the back yard (they have deer year round at their house, one deer even came inside their house!). Cole thought it was sooo cool and had to get closer. The amazing thing is that the deer didn't even bat an eyelash until Cole was just a few feet away. Then the deer stood up but still didn't run away until Cole got almost close enough to touch it. Amazing! We had water fights (I think everyone was soaked by the end, especially Grandpa) and a yummy BBQ. Then we did some "stink balls" which is our way of saying smoke bombs, and sparklers. We had just one collision when Claire and Macie were running through the smoke and ran right into each other. Macie was sure her arm was broken! She recovered momentarily when the sparklers came out.
