Utah: Independence Day Celebrations

July 3, 2021: Independence Day fell on a Sunday this year, so Utah's Fireworks show was scheduled for Saturday night.  We drove up with Julie, Michael and Brielle to Vasion and watched the fireworks show from the deck.  It was really pretty to see the St George Temple all lit up with an array of beautifully colored fireworks bursting right behind it.
July 4th: We had our cousin Aleesha and her kids over to eat with us. 
We should have taken pictures together, but alas we did not.  I also missed getting a picture with Mom and Dad.  But we all had a great time and enjoyed some great food!
The kids had a lot of fun playing together and we enjoyed chatting and playing games.  
A fun new card game Julie has is Monopoly Deal.  It's a card version of Monopoly that's a lot quicker than the original game and there are twists, like stealing properties.
Brielle all dressed for the 4th of July, with her cute flag balloon.

July 5th: Josh, Dad, the boys and Tux drove up into the canyon to explore.
Such a cool picture of them all.
