my favorite holiday

the 4th of july is hands down my most favorite holiday…..for some reason this holiday just has loads of traditions and meaning to me and i love it…

every fourth we start it off with the annual north ogden cherry days 5k

this year me, bryson and my mom ran it (also my mom and bryson had just gotten home from trek the night before…they were quite sore)

mom took first in her age division (she rocks), i took third, and bryson…..well lets just say he took fourth OVERALL…i have trained him well!!

then after the race we head over to the parade….i have parade spot anxiety so we usually get there early so we can sit in the road when they block it off…this year my dad’s two brothers and their families joined us

my dad and his little buddy (my cousin luke)

(the cutest veteran float and my sbo brother)

(the whole crew)

then we decided to perform our own firework show
