This was our first 4th of July with Korban. We got to go up to Heidi's house and celebrate the Victor way. Well sort of. Victor has a great hot air balloon festival. But due to the endless chatter of the womenfolk (me, Heidi and Gretchen, and my mom and Juju) we stayed up too late and were too tired to wake up at the b*** crack of dawn. But we did get ready and attend the parade. And suprisingly enough it was really good for a small town. Yes there were the redneck floats and the 200 member Mormon family float but all in all it was pretty good. Korban was so tired though so he and I cuddled in the truck while the rest of my family (mostly my dad) helped McKinley collect the most candy. My mom (in grandmother fashion) decked the kids out in matching outfits. They were so cute.
This is Heidi's husband Jared who is a volunteer firefighter. He got to drive the remote controlled firetruck the squirts water on you. My mom got hit which was awesome.
I would have gotten pictures of Korban enjoying his first firework show too. But he fell asleep. So like the night before, the womenfolk stayed up and watched the fireworks that the neighbors lit and we ate brownies and cobbler until we were sick. It was a very fun weekend.
