One thing we've really enjoyed these last couple of years, is driving to Driggs Idaho to Huntsman Springs - to watch the firework display. It is always the Saturday before the 4th of July and we really really enjoy it. There is a huge grassy area, lots of bounce houses and vendors and this year the Beach Boys performed and then during the firework show, Lee Greenwood came out on stage and sang 'I'm Proud to be an American'. It was awesome!!
This year, Tyler got home from the Aaronic Priesthood Encampment around 2 in the afternoon. We left around 5 p.m., and it was HOT! Our car registered about 99 degrees. Needless to say, in that kind of heat, we forgot jackets and we only had one blanket. While driving, we reached Sugar City and the wind started picking up and it was 10 degrees cooler, just 10 minutes away. By the time we pulled into the parking for the fireworks, it was raining like crazy! Lots of dark clouds. We sat in the car for awhile and finally braved it. We felt lucky that it was cool and it stopped raining! Beautiful night for fireworks. Just wish we had our jackets!
The bounce houses are free, and the little ones LOVE it! Helps work out some energy too!
We loved just hanging out and playing games and eating snacks while waiting for fireworks to start.
I probably haven't mentioned it yet, but we really enjoy this firwork show! :) Everything about it - and I think we have it down to a science. We know where to park and we are quick at getting out and getting home. Great weekend!
