4th of July in Blanding

Have I ever mentioned that the 4th of July celebration in Blanding is the BEST!!  It is aways so fun to see family and friends.  The town of Blanding is always bursting at the seams, as families come together to celebrate our great nation.

 Those of us who could get out of bed early (and who are tough) ran the annual 5K.  Well, Palmer actually rode in the stroller, but she was there!!!

And then there is the parade.  It was awesome as usual!  

And once again we hung out with family and friends.

                     
                       And then the carnival.

And we went to the dinosaur museum.  It was pretty awesome also.

The day was topped off with the fireworks display!!

This is what it looks like at our house the day after the 4th of July.
