4th of July in Pullman

As most of you know...Mike and I LOVE the 4th of July. We have never spent one in Pullman before but this year was great!!!

Here is a pic of us 3 years ago when we were dating in Provo (this was the Sunday right before the 4th).

Since our Ward doesn't do a pancake breakfast we decided to have our own!

Merry and Sage Holmes. This is my friend that taught me how to sew! Check out her cute watermelon quilt that she finished the night before!
The Kilpatricks! Steph is very anxious for her little boy to come out!
I made us aprons so that we could look extra festive while cooking pancakes and eggs.
Todd and Mike.
I saw this cake on the cover of Women's Day magazine when I was in like 5th grade and I have wanted to make it since!
I forgot to rotate this one ;)
Us at Sunnyside park.
In the afternoon we rode our bikes downtown and then went to the Christensens for a BBQ.
Mike and I were big spenders on fireworks this year...we spent $5.80. Everyone here is used to having their own fireworks but we never really had them since they are illegal where we live.
This is right before a spark went down my shirt...no worries I wasn't harmed.
We tried to get a picture of everyone with the sparklers but the Kilpatricks got cut out!!!

Lucy Mower loved the fireworks!
This is the grand finale of our fireworks show in front of the Christensens.

Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate our favorite holiday. We had a blast!

It looks like you guys had so much fun! I wish we could have been there! All our fun was ruined by us getting sick! Oh well, maybe next year...
I agree with Jerica, you look so cute in all the pics!
