Freedom Festival 2008



So the 4th of July is one of my very favorite holidays. Probably because it is warm as opposed to Christmas and Thanksgiving, my other two favs and it doubles as my mom's birthday. This year was a great 4th of July here in Provo, they really out do themselves and I love every minute of it. I started my day with the 5K Freedom Run. It was really fun and I am so glad that Jessica got me into it. I hadn't even been running in like 3 weeks but decided to do it anyways. I did better than I thought I would but it still kind of kicked my butt. They planned it just right so it ended with a hill and that was the hardest part. I cant wait for our next one. After that Mike and I walked to the parade and it was really fun. The parade was huge (well compared to anything K-town puts on) Glenn Beck was even in it! That afternoon we had some friends from Rexburg here and Val, Jeff and Halle over for a little BBQ and then we walked up to campus and found an awesome spot to watch the fireworks from the Stadium of Fire. I love fireworks, they are my absolute favorite, I get really excited about them. I am sad that its over but we had a blast!
