Independence Day

Since we were all going to Hawaii this summer my parents opted out of throwing the Cul-de-sac of fire at their house so we celebrated at my Grandma and Grandpa Abbott's house in Provo. Before my parents moved into the house they currently live in we used to always spend 4th of Julys here at my Grandmas. Lighting our own fireworks and then afterwards climbing on her roof to watch the Stadium of Fire in the distance.

Cousin Shelby.

Grandma and Grandpa Abbott. Never a dull moment with them.

Every year you can pretty much guarantee all the men will be throwing crackle bombs at each other all night. (which I do not condone by the way, but people have the right to make stupid choices so whatever)

Uncle Bean. Who is in the running to win Truck Norris from Maverick! Cool huh! He visits Maverick like two times a day so I feel like he definitely deserves to win.

Fourth of July has always been one of my favorite holidays (only second to Christmas). Nothing like eating barbecued burgers while hanging out with your dysfunctional yet awesome family members and trying not to burn off your eyebrows from the showers of sparks raining down from the fireworks.

Good times always.
