Blanding Fourth of July 2014

We had no sooner gotten home from Indiana that we went to Blanding for the 4th. In fact, I unpacked a few things from bigger bags that we had taken to Indiana, and threw them into smaller bags for Blanding.
As you know, it's our family tradition to go to Blanding for the 4th of July. It's the best place to be for Independence day. Most of Steve's extended family on the Broderick side come down too.
 There is always a lot of family there and activities to do. Yay! for another fun year.

On our way to Blanding. You can tell we are in Utah--- look out the window.

We won the Amazing Race in the cemetery and Steve won these candies when he estimated the closest/ 

Headed to the fireworks. Steve didn't come. The 5K took it out of him. ;-)

Too bad this is blurry! These are typical firework shenanigans
