July 3rd were the stadium fireworks. We met the Hyde Parkers at a nearby church and ball field where we ate dinner, played games, munched on snacks, and mostly chased Emma around. I was curious how Emma would react to the fireworks this year. Turns out it takes a lot to impress her :) She enjoyed watching the first few that went off - even clapped for them - and then decided that was enough and she could resume her wandering.
July 4th we headed to Minnetonka Cave with Dustin's sister and her kids. They give tours through the cave, which was a great escape from the hot temps we've been experiencing! We couldn't leave Bear Lake without a stop at LeBeau's for a shake :) That evening Dustin made fried chicken, dutch oven potatoes, and the fixin's for our dinner. Then we all headed out to Hyrum to watch their firework show. It's always exciting, as you never know how many will end up exploding on the ground :) The best part was just spending time with family!
