4th of July fun in Idaho Falls

Had a great fourth of July in Idaho Falls. We started the day by going out to Blacktail reservoir and going on Joe's jet boat. Frank and Joe went out at 0600 to do some bass and trout fishing. Nothing much, Joe caught a rainbow and a bass, Frank caught two bass.


Picked the girls up at 0930 at the docks and spent about 4 hours on the water. It was the girls first time getting on the tube pulled behind the boat. Amber had a few nice runs also. Both girls were able to ride the tube 3 times, loved every minute of it.


Got home, swam in the Millers pool, ate left overs instead of BBQing due to the insanity of the heat outside. Then we all biked down to the Idaho Falls Greenbelt to watch the Idaho Falls fireworks. What a great time. Perfect weather and probably 150 thousand people packed on the greenbelt, three times the size of our population.

Graycie's first top tooth came out today (Saturday) She's so proud :)

The show was great as usual, not disappointing anyone. We rode home in the dark along with hundreds of other bikes. But, we were home in 20 minutes, not having to deal with any traffic. Here's a few videos of the day. There will be another post on the morning boating once uploaded.
