I love living in Utah County! Seriously. The 4th of July is awesome with all the hot air balloons everywhere. Kye and the two older kids went down at 6:00 AM to watch the balloons fill up and take off. The little boys and I watched the balloons come up over our neighborhood. The view from Marie Ridge's porch On our way to the ward breakfast, there was one in the road. When we got to the breakfast, there was a balloon there too! Ward breakfast line-up On the other side of the school, there was a nice group of people that let anyone get in and ride up a little bit. The fire blasting was loud!
