Fourth of July - Flag Raising

We had a very literal "flag raising" this morning at our ward building to celebrate the 4th of July. One of the scouts put in a new flag pole for his eagle project. The whole ward met early this morning for the regular pancake breakfast and then we all raised not just the flag but the entire flag pole Iwo Jima style.


It was a great ward activity and very patriotic.

Jen snapped an adorable picture of Thatcher sleeping in his car seat. She also got a candid shot of Dallin and me out on the grass... I was trying to build up Dallin's courage to go over and play with the girls but he just wanted to watch what they were doing from a safe distance :)







After the flag raising all of the kids had a bike parade. They had decorated their bikes with red, white and blue streamers, flags and what not. It was really cute. They just kept riding in a circle around the parking lot having the time of their lives!
