Independence Day 2011

This year we started out at the Kaysville parade. Tayzhia was dancing in the parade so we were excited to see her. The weather was really nice.

My little beauty queen
Bella was excited to catch candy but not so excited about having to share. The boys were a little bit quicker than her but she uncle Ty helped her out and she ended up with way more candy than she needed.


This was our favorite float. It was really pretty and Bella liked the princesses. This parade is always crazy. They throw lots of candy, necklaces, frisbees, balls, stuffed animals, ties (only in Utah!) and this year rice krispie treats. Yum!


Later on we went to my sister's house for a BBQ. I made a potato salad and I also made a salad using cauliflower instead of potatoes. It tasted just like potato salad but was way more healthy. I couldn't believe how good it was. All the families chipped in on a big firework box. We didn't go to a city firework show and we didn't really need to with all the fireworks going off in the neighborhood. With all the fireworks that were legalized this year it was really fun. We had a great day!

We were at the Kaysville Parade too. That was the best float, we were by the people who had a water fight the whole time even with the rain and the float had to drive by fast not to get ruined. one guy was squirting every float and they were worried.

Sounds like you had a great holiday. I'd like that cauliflower salad recipe. Would you be willing to post it?
