Independence Day Weekend

We had a fun Independence Day weekend, participating in a few of our annual traditions. On July 3, the Eaglewood Golf Course in North Salt Lake always has a big carnival, and then a program with paratroopers, a flyover, and fireworks.July 4 fell on a Sunday this year, so we had a low-key celebration at Rara & Papa’s, watching the fun programs from Washington DC and Boston, and then doing our own sparklers.Our main celebration was on Monday, since we all had it off of work. Marc & Frances and Alice & Claire came to Rara & Papa’s, too. We enjoyed playing with the girls in the little pool, and a yummy BBQ pizza assortment for lunch. Then the girls tried sparklers (while avoiding all of the bugs in the front yard).We had a great time celebrating the Independence Day holiday, so much so that our celebrating continued into the following weekend! See the next post for the details.
