Happy 4th!!!

This year we had hoped that we would head down to Utah and hang out with the fam for the 4th. Last year we had so much fun, so this year I was pretty disappointed that we weren't able to go and I sorta felt like this year wouldn't be much fun.
BUT I WAS WRONG........I shoulda known that being in such a small town that there would be something fun to do. A friend of mine told us about the Menan 4th celebration and how much fun her family has had...PLUS how cheap everything is!

So that Morning we headed out about 9am. Now 9 am is early for my family to be out of the house, dressed, Lunches and snacks packed and prepared for anything.....But we made it!!! First we hit the family breakfast! CHEAP and YUMMY!!!! It was a beautiful day, and we got to sit around and drool over the Softball games...ONE DAY....ONE DAY.....we to again will play!!! But it was fun and by the time my kids got to the breakfast they were truly hungry and chowed down. The kids had time to play and find a few trees to climb!!!


Like I said cheap.....they had tractor rides, bouncy houses, fishing games, face painting....all ranging from .25cent to a dollar!!! The lady driving the tractor was so impressed by the kids....she said they just screamed go faster...and they weren't scared at all.....
We got some .50 cent slush's...just the right size!
We relaxed on a blanket and listened to the band play!

Then, what I thought was the funniest thing ever!!!

They had potato sack races, wheel barrow races....

They had these foot races starting at age 2.....and ending with grandmas and grandpas!!!
Let me tell you that are some tough Grandparents out there! Some that woulda whooped me!


Each of the kids that ran got a treat....and the older peole got .50 cents!
Everyone was such a good sport!!


Then after that they had a parade!!!!! oh the joy and fun!!!!
They also had duck races! where MY duck won!!!!!!!! woot woot....ohhhh yah!!
I got a camo real tree hat (only in Idaho) and a 20 dollar gift certificate!!!
Later that night they had a big fireworks display and this was our back drop...... Straight country....no big buildings, no huge crowds......I love it....

All of this fun for under 20 bucks.....and came home with $25 and a hat....Not to shabby!!!
