4th of July


We started the 4th of July at the zoo.  The girls were all about having their picture taken.  It took several tries to get Jarren to get in.




We have a season pass to the zoo, so we've already gone a few times this year, but we always like to ride the train while we're there.  Now there is a brand new exhibit with a polar bear, otters, sea lions and stuff like that.  Today was our first day to see it and it was awesome!


After the zoo we went to the new City Creek Mall.  We had been there once before and it's pretty amazing! While we were at City Creek we lost Halle and it was a pretty scary 10 minutes before we finally found her.


Jason's brother, Jeremy, and his family were in town for the 4th, so here are all of the cousins on Jason's side of the family.


Jason's other brother, Laren, was all about putting on a firework display.  I think he ended up with about 33 aerial fireworks.  He put on quite the firework show.  The cops came once, to check out the show and make sure his fireworks were all legal (they were), and there were even 2 upset neighbors after the 3rd firework went off.  I guess that makes it even better.


Here is Halle at the end of the evening.  I love how she has her ears covered!
