4th of July

On the 4th of July we went to the Heber firework show. We got there around 6 pm to sit around and wait until it was dark. I was a little worried about the long wait...especially having Sarah, but it was very relaxing. The kids ran around and played. Derek at one point was insistent that he was starving so I gave in and bought a bag of kettle corn...yummmy! I'm glad he was starving:)

Emily surprisingly did well with the loud noises. As long as she was held with her ears covered she was fine. At one point Sarah (grandma) said Emily was shaking but she didn't cry.

Baby Sarah did wonderful. I think she enjoyed being outside. For a long time she just laid on the blanket looking around. She skipped her usual evening fussy period and when we got back to the house she went straight to bed and slept a good 5+ hours (wonderful!!!).

There was a slow line of cars to get into the parking lot and we worried about getting out after the show, but amazingly we got out in less than 10 minutes, including the time walking back to the car. It was a fun time and I'm glad Darrell and I didn't turn around when we saw the line to get in (we almost did).
