4th of July

We had a great 4th this year! We started the day off by going to breakfast at a friend's house for pancakes. Then Jeff and Kathy came down from Idaho for the day. Grandpa Swaner joined us for the day as well. We went to lunch at the Oaks up Ogden Canyon and then to the Dinosaur Park. I have never been, for fear that Hailey would not be into it. But she loved it! She loved wandering around looking at the different dinosaurs and roaring at them! There were some animatronic dinos that moved and made sounds that she was a little nervous about at first, but soon got over that. And she knows what a triceratops is, which I think is pretty good considering we don't really play with dinosaurs ever!

Ha! Roaring like the dinosaur. It really looks like this guy is going to eat her!

Making Grandpa come "this way."

Hailey didn't want anyone to fall behind.

Bonding.

Checking out the ducks.

Silly

Watch out for these two...

Loved walking around with Grandpa.

It was so hot and we had been walking around outside for so long that we all needed a little refreshment. We headed over to Farr's for some ice cream! Hailey enjoyed sampling everyone's ice cream. 

 Hailey has always hated sitting on our shoulders. This is one of the rare moments she was ok with it!

Later we went to the Kaysville fireworks which are at Davis High School and the DATC. A couple of neighbors recommended that we go to these and they were great! It was a total zoo of people, but we showed up late and found the perfect spot! We did sparklers and pop-its until the fireworks started. This is the first year that Hailey has really been into the fireworks. And I think she loves them. She doesn't seem to be afraid of them at all. We were all exhausted by the end of the day. But it was a blast!
