The derby on the 4th of July

Every year the one thing that everyone looks forward to on the 4th of July is the demolition derby! There is nothing better than the derby in Delta. It's fun to go and hang out with the family and then watch the fireworks after dark. I can barely remember a 4th of July without the derby as part of that memory. I love that the kids love it too! It's the reason we like to go to our hometown on the 4th... it's the best part, or so the kids say! Hyrum was picked to play one of the balloon games while they were towing out cars, he thought it was awesome to be picked!






Lined up before the derby starts...

Silly girls, they manage to have fun anywhere, anytime and usually end up making everyone around them laugh too!

My sweet Kami, enjoying the derby!

Last year after the derby we ended up taking Nate to the ER and found out he had pneumonia again. It is awesome to see him so healthy and happy this year!!!!

Kailee, Kassi and Wyatt... the life of any party!

Sometimes a boy just has to tolerate his big sisters teasing him! Bummy loves it though...



Mini car races...



The mini car races are as exciting as the actual derby... Awwwwwwwwww... nothing better than blue snow cones at the derby!




Nate kept posing, letting me take picture after picture of him and his daddy!





Nate loves teasing his uncle Shalum... it's a good thing uncle Shalum is so good to him because he wouldn't leave him alone!




The kids think the best part of the derby is anytime a truck or car gets tipped over! I know... we are really easily entertained!



Aunt Tammy Dene and Kami Dene!
