4th of July.

     The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays. The weather is always amazing, you are outside, fireworks, and of course celebrating the great United States of America! I cannot remember a year when we didn't celebrate. Unfortunately Rexburg is too small of a town to actually have fireworks, so you have to go elsewhere. Last year a bunch of us went to Idaho Falls to watch the fireworks over the river but this year Anna and I decided to do something different. 

Stadium of Fire! The Stadium of Fire is in Provo, Utah and is a huge concert and fireworks show at Lavelle Edwards Stadium. This year the performers were Circ De Sole, Carly Rae Jepsen, and KELLY CLARKSON!

   Anna and I drove to Utah Thursday morning and stopped to see Sarah, Matt, and Benson. It was so fun to see them! Benson has changed so much. I can't believe he is already a month old. Then we ventured into Provo and basically waited around all day until the stadium opened. Finally we were allowed in, we were so excited! It was so fun to see all the performances but the highlight was definitely Kelly Clarkson. Anna and I have both been huge fans ever since her American Idol debut 11years ago! It was a trip hearing her perform a few of her old songs. She is seriously a power house! Her performance was incredible! I am so glad that we got to experience the Stadium of Fire, it is definitely something I would love to do again. It was a great day to remember how lucky we are to live in such a blessed land.
