Happy Belated Fourth to everyone!!!
We spent our fourth of July up at my mom's in prescott valley, we left on friday and decided to take the route through Payson, instead of the I-17. (something about the news of they closed the highway to get a chicken out of the road, and the 10-mile back up at the Loop-101 and I-17 interchange, just said if you are an idiot, please take this route up to your destination) We had smooth driving just up until 5 miles outside of Payson, then I swear every person that thinks that they need to camp with everything under the sun packed in their vehicles was on the highway, we went about 10-15 miles per hour until the light at the 260 intersection, everyone and their dog( Everyone practically had all of their dogs or what looked like dogs with them or in the back of their vehicles) turned at the intersection, We went straight and had no problem from then on! We drove through the beautiful rain, and saw the most gorgeous rainbow.
On the fourth of July, we went to the parade, it was so much fun to be able to watch a parade without feeling like you are loosing 25 pounds from sweating in the heat! John McCain was in the parade, that was hilarious to see all of the people watch him and his Entourage of people that were with him in the parade. Scott took this picture of the horses, he thought that it was a neat looking one because it has a blue eye and white eyelashes. After the parade ended we went to the bazar that they hold on the courthouse lawn, we watched people running on the road, and wondered what the heck they were doing, we came to find out that they were holding races of certain age groups of people who had to wear cowboy boots while running. It was hilarious to watch this because people actually dressed up for this event. After the bazar we went to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings, we chose to sit out on the patio seating. By the time that we were done eating we had moved our table in about 10 feet (upon receiving our food it started to pour like cats and dogs) we enjoyed the misting of the rain.
After lunch we venture back to my mom's and played in the rain. It was so much fun remembering about when we were children and played out in the rain. We hung out playing games and eating good food (we played Family Uno with my brother, he had to draw 46 cards in one hand, he was so mad at me for the 6 draw four's that I layed down in one turn, but it was hilarious to watch him trying to hold all of the cards at once)
We left about 30 minutes before the fireworks were to start, we played games and enjoyed ourselves. We enjoyed the fireworks that Prescott Valley had, My favorite part is hearing the sound that the fireworks make off of the mountains nearby. We think that we are going to try to make this a tradition of going to Prescott Valley every year, We cannot pass up the 70 degree or less weather!!!

It sounds like you guys had a wonderful time spending time with family. We would like to make reservations for next year please :)-
It looked and sounded like you two had a really fun time.
We agree with Amber and Aaron. We would like to have some coll weather for the fourth of July. Glad to see that you had fun.
Jonathan has asked for three months now, when we were going to Jodi's mom's house? When we ask him why, he says he wants to play with her knight Legos. That's the only reason. We just laugh at him.
