Balloons, Parade, and My Cute Boy!

(This is a long picture post)

We had a fantastic 4th...actually 5th...it felt like the 4th. :)

We started the day at 4:45 a.m. Chris and I woke up and got ready for the balloon festival. We woke Boston around 5:15 and headed out. He was not happy about the early morning wake up call but it's tradition and we thought he'd like it.
Once we got there he took a few minutes to get used to things but after that he loved watching the balloons fill with air and take off. Chris was equally impressed. He had never been before and I grew up with this tradition. It's one I look forward to every year.













After the Balloon festival we headed over to our usually family spot for the Provo Parade. Boston loved the fire trucks, and motorcycle cops, but he loved playing with his cousins most of all.



I love being able to pass along these fun traditions to my son and continue them with my family!

I know this is already a long post, but I had to add these pictures in. Isn't he the cutest? He walked around in his dad's hat all day just waiting for him to get home from work.
