We’ve spent a lot of fourth of July weekends in Show Low. This year was unusual because there was no fireworks- due to fire danger. At least we saw fireworks from our car window as we drove through Globe, on our way to Show Low. We attended the parade and ate yummy food at the Larsen's.
Jennette & Raegan^…………………………………………………Marlee with Anna
One of the few times I saw the kids stand still, usually they were running for candy.
My favorite float this year (not sure if it is technically called a float) was this cement truck that had the names of the Show Low Families from 1912, when the population was only 200. The names were on the turning part, so as it rotated you could read all of the families last names. I thought it was really cool that Frost and Hall were right by each other.
There’s always lots of horses in the parade.
Marlee enjoyed all the candy that was thrown out during the parade and would eat it immediately.
She quickly learned to wave her arms when she saw candy being thrown.
Daddy’s girl
The kids loved the otter pops.
Marlee so excited about her popsicle.
Karlee & Mutt (Laun’s cousin) were rockin’ out on their float.
More Hall cousins on the LDS float…
This purple smoke came out in circle shapes…and I liked what this banner said:
holy cow-I have my father’s squinty eyes
Larsen family- love Anna’s bubble gum grin
We had dinner at the Larsen’s home tonight. Laun grilled steak & there was tons of side dishes. I love this pasta salad that Kami makes. And Jennette & Lucy had lots of yummy dishes, too.
Most the kiddos ate outside…
I love the many great conversations that have been had around this table…
the homemade root beer was a hit
The kids entertained themselves for a long time on the swing set.
Clayton on the swing…
Porter tends to get pushed around by Marlee-haha…
and apparently so does Kalli.
love Anna-Bannana
I’m so thankful for the 4th of July & for the freedoms we enjoy in this country.
