4th of July Weekend (Part I)


This year we wanted to do something different for the 4th of July. We've been going to the Idaho Falls show, and although it's a nice show, we were ready for a change! So we decided to celebrate up in Driggs at the Huntsman Springs Celebrate America Festival.

We wanted to go to the Hot Air Balloon show, but that started at 6am and we didn't want to have to start driving from Rexburg at 5 am, so we decided to camp up in the Teton Valley on Friday night.











It was so worth it! We were so happy to get to see the Hot Air Balloon show! It was amazing!!






















Finally, after 12 hours of exciting festivities, the evening events started. We got to hear from Jon Huntsman and Glen Beck.






Last, but not least, we watched the most amazing fireworks show I've ever seen! I don't have any pictures to prove it, but just trust me, it was the best fireworks show ever!! There were like 3 times when I thought, "This must be the finale." But it just kept going it was amazing! So, for next year, if anyone is deciding where they want to go for 4th of July, I highly recommend the Huntsman Springs Festival!!

All this, and it's not even the 4th yet! Stay tuned for the second part of celebrations!
