This was Jamie's first Fourth of July. Jason's family came for the weekend and we had a blast. We had waffles and ice cream for breakfast. Then we went to the park for games and activities, though he's a bit young for it all. So we just walked around and watched a Hot Dog eating contest. The winner ate 11 dogs in 12 minutes, and thankfully no one got sick this year. For lunch we BBQed burgers. We tried to go to Dixie Rock to watch fireworks, but they had the road blocked. So instead we stopped off the side of the road and watched with many other St. George dwellers. We got there quite early so while we waited, we had stir fry and salad. Jamie was quite upset while we waited, but happily, he settled down before the show started. 
Lo and behold, instead of fireworks only over the city park, the city shot fireworks over Dixie rock as well. Hence, the closed road. It was fantastic. Jamie did very well. He slept through the first half and watched the second half, jumping only once. He didn't cry or fuss the whole show. I'd say it was a total success.
Happy 4th of July!!!
