A Fun packed 4th of July!!
After the family reunion on the 4th of July we headed for Bridal Veil falls where we took a walk and dipped our feet into the cool water of the water fall.
Cory, Ethan, Adam, Kristal and Kim enjoying the cool water.

After having fun at the falls we headed over to Grandpa Patten's home. Lynn and Kevin were preparing a BBQ for all the family. It was also their day to have the water turn so the back yard was flooded for the kids to play in.

The story of this picture is that the kids threw water at Shawn...hmmmm

After the food came the flood!

Megan and Addison waiting to be saved on their island! Jonny having fun scooping up the water!Ethan still eating......!! For desert we got a birthday cake for Shawn and sang happy birthday. It will be a great 29th. year for Shawn thanks to Kim! When it got dark Shawn and Cory got out the fireworks! They drove to Wyoming the night before along with Jimmy to load up on fireworks...this is beginning to be a bad tradition!!

They started off sane enough but after almost setting the house, the trees, the spectators and themselves on fire the hour drew late and they decided to pack in in....only to bring the fireworks back to Shawn's home and setting off a couple of more that nearly landed them in the emergency room!

And so ended our fun filled 4th of July!!!
