Fourth of July Weekend 2008 ****

Friday July 4th 2008
My sister Laura, her husband Paul and their little boy Parker came to spend fourth of july weekend with us in Pocatello. We had tons of fun and Paul Jones dubbed this 4th of July "the best 4th of July weekend he has had since 2007!" haha IT was a bunch of fun and everyday we had fun stuff to do. It was busy, but we always got our 2 hour nap in with the boys each day. Paul especially loved that part. Jordan and his cousin Parker started off by playing in the balls together. They loved it!They loved playing in the balls!
Hi! We also went to the park on friday morning and went on the swings and the playground called "scamperville".

Friday after their nap the boys went swimming in the pool in the backyard while we barbecued chicken and got the food ready.

We went and watched fireworks at the Pocatello fairgrounds which are called " the biggest show in Idaho. It was fun playing ball with the boys while we waited and then watched the fireworks. It was a long day!

On saturday me and Paul started off by playing basketball in the morning at the stake center. We got home and Laura had gone to the store and gotten Donuts and Oranje Juice. They were yummy! After breakfast we went to the mall and let the boys play on the cool mall playground they have there. We all forgot to bring our cameras to the playground. After going home and taking a nap we went to the Ross park Aquatic Center where the boys had a bunch of fun playing in the kiddie pool and going around the "Lazy River". After the pool we went to CRAIGOS PIZZA BUFFET and had a feast of pizza, pasta, desert pizza and ice cream! At night the boys took a bath together, we lit off our own smoke bombs, flowers and sparklers followed by the grand finally Bin Laddin Noggin Firework. After the boys went to bed the grown ups played CLUE. The weekend was fun and it was great having Paul and Laura visit!
