Fourth of July

On the Fourth of July, we had a picnic, games, an Easter egg hunt and fireworks. Quite a full day!

Ultimate frisbee with the cousins.


Croquet--only the guys.

Eating.

After the park and before the fireworks, we had the annual Larsen Easter Egg Hunt at grandma's house. I don't have any pictures but everyone was hunting for eggs filled with candy. Each family member gets 3 eggs to find that have been hidden by the fathers. The annual event usually occurs in the summer sometime when the family gets together.

In Utah, having your own fireworks is legal! This was a first for me so it was fun to see the kids setting them off. Ammon, the pyromaniac, thrived on this task. He set one off after another. Connor was a bit scared of the fireworks. He wasn't even interested in doing a sparkler- a good healthy fear- and I wasn't going to force him.


Fireworks in the street. Ammon is the one closest.

I love this picture of Uncle Chris. He looks like a deer caught in the headlights!
