We partied at South Salt Lake City's firework festival again this year! Heidi, Faye and I got to the field early to stake out a spot for all our relatives. Faye kept cool by eating all the watermelon she could reach!
I think she ate four pieces before we started hiding the watermelon from her.
Faye and Heidi both enjoyed the umbrella Faye picked out at the zoo earlier today. Today is Heidi's due date! No baby cousin yet, though.
We were excited for the cousins to show up. It's always nice to have extra eyes to help keep track of Faye in big crowds. Everybody enjoyed the live band, the picnic, and catching up with each other. Here we have Uncle Rick, Uncle Doug, Cousin Spencer, Tyler, and Reed with Faye.
Everybody camped out again.

The firework show was spectacular as ever. Faye insisted on cuddling with her Grandma and fell asleep during the show. I'll never get over how nice it is to have a low-key Independence Day. I definitely miss being involved in community celebrations, but as a Mom, it's nice just to spend time with family. Hopefully we can make some memorable and patriotic traditions that everybody can look forward to.
