My friend, Jenn, and I took the kids to get all the decorations they were going to need for their bikes, scooters, strollers and helmets. After a LONG time of shopping (when you have 5 crazy fun kids, it seems longer than it really is) we came back to the house to eat pizza and decorate our things.
Getting ready for the parade with our friends, the Walls.
Friday
Our ward had a breakfast, parade, flag raising ceremony, and, of course, the candy cannon. After it was over we all got to take naps, yes you read it correctly. The first 4th of July in Zamora history, we got to take naps!!! As soon as we woke up, we headed over to the pool, then home to get ready for our BBQ with the Walls. We had our own fireworks, then watched a big firework show after. It was a fun day.

These kids were so funny. Dallin really wanted to say the Pledge of Allegiance to the fruit pizza. Pretty random
Watching the firework show that the dads put on
A firework show isn't a firework show until we have people jumping over them...thanks for the entertainment, Nate!
Saturday
Saturday was a fun day too. We had a easy morning of errands and lunch, and all 3 kids took a NAP! 2 days in a row!!! After they woke up we all got ready to go to one of our nieces baptism. I love that we got to be there for her and that the kids got to play with their cousins. We then hurried home to get our dessert and fireworks to take to the Smith's. The kids had a lot of fun running around, eating sweets the ENTIRE time, and (somewhat) watching the fireworks. I think the dads had more fun lighting them. Thanks Challey and Spencer!!!
I am surprised that there is still dessert on this table with all the kids around it
A picture with some of the kids sitting...miracle!

You all look so patriotic! I love the idea of the bike parade! that souns like fun!
I heard that Dallin was pretty excited for the bike parade! You guys did a good job with the decorating. Looks like you guys had fun and didn't miss us (or the parade) here in Rexburg at all. :) And that picture of Kailee and Tylie is SO Cute!
Your kids are growing up! OH MY GOODNESS! Looks like a lot of FUN going on for you guys! I love the 4th of July! My girls aren't thrilled with fireworks... They both hide in blankets to avoid some of the noise!!! It's FUNNY!
Even though I had a good time here (it was terrific being here for Hunter's birthday), I missed the Rexburg activities. I wonder how the Hirshi's are!!!! I'll see you soon.
sounds like fun!!!
Hi Becky- Its Amy Erickson from the ward. I found your blog through Jessi Runias. I love that there are people in my ward that also have blogs. I was beginning to think I was the only one. I love it. See you later. PS- I love your pics.
Super cool decorations for the bike parade! When the baby gets older we'll have to find a place that they do that because I remember being in a bike parade when I was 6 and it was so fun! Good idea!
What an AWEOME mom you are!! U make me SMILE!! ;)
