a few months ago my dad decided that he wanted the whole family to participate in the freedom run 5k. so on the morning of the 4th we rolled out of bed at an obscene hour and made our way into provo. i haven't run in almost a year so i was a bit worried. my goal was to simply run the whole time. i couldn't care less about my time. brandon and i ran together with my 9 year-old niece, brinley, who had been training at home in AZ. it took a good amount of encouragement, a couple of lies about the finish line being just around the corner, and a little ride on the stroller (for brinley, not me)but we were able to meet our goal. it was such a fun run and something brandon and i decided we want to make a tradition.
this little lady also enjoyed the race. she was so happy and content in her stroller.
that night my family got together for our annual bbq and firework show. i love that aerial fireworks have been legalized! best firework show ever!

Definitely the best fourth ever! It was so much fun! The run was awesome and I agree the fireworks were the best we've ever had!
