We had a good time this year as the girls and I visited Idaho Falls again this year (Brian stayed home to work, but joined us later for his family reunion in Utah).
We were lucky enough to be there for the 4th of July where they have a fun parade and one of the largest Firework displays this side of the Mississippi (or something like that). It was HUGE and was set to music as well.
The girls are all prepared for their favorite part of the parade--the CANDY!! Of course Lydia's favorite part was anything big and loud--she LOVED the fire engines and anything that had music playing with it.
We visited several places with my parents, one of which was a place I had never been to before--Quake Lake. It was so fascinating!
The girls loved being outdoors, and not sweltering in the heat.
This boulder actually slid from the opposite side of the mountain (next picture with Sadie standing in the foreground) and it never rolled, it went so fast down the mountain during the earthquake.
We had a highway between us and the other mountain, and the boulders and rocks broke off of the mountain behind Sadie (where there's no trees) and came across a river over to the side we were on.
Some interesting facts of Quake Lake, the earthquake dislodged a huge chunk of mountain and took out a campground area and killed many people in the valley below.
DID YOU KNOW. . .
