4th in Vegas

We spend the 4th of July in Vegas with the DeWitts.  We had such a great time, so good I kept forgetting to take out the camera!!  We went to Bullhead City for the 4th of July parade.  It was CRAZY fun!!  The boys planned ahead and brought 200+ water balloons, plenty of water guns and 3 big coolers full of water/ammo.  After the first half of the parade the second half is a big water fight.  It was all fun and games until some idiot (driving in the parade) hit a teenager (equally idiotic) and the ambulance and fire truck (actually already in the parade but at the end) were brought to the scene and the water fight was outlawed!  BOO! But we had a great time while it lasted.

 Of course I had to make the traditional flag cake.  Pretty good considering I was out of town and didn't have all of my supplies.

 The show started about 20 minutes late, so we had to entertain them somehow!
 We climbed up a hill next to the freeway fence and had the BEST view of the fireworks that were just across the freeway.
Thanks for hosting, DeWitts!  Can't wait until next year!
