The 4th of July

The day started out with some of the adults going on the yearly run put on by the Woodburn ward. As soon as they got back it was time to go to St. Paul For the Parade!
Hanging out, waiting for the parade to start.
                                                                      The grandkids
                                                                     It's coming!
This was right after we made the kids scoot back, which we had to do many times. We were probably the loudest group...the kids were wanting some candy! Alothough a lot of the people were out because we were towards the end of the parade, but no worries, the kids got plenty of candy. :)
This little boy loves his grandpa. They like to go on walks, Jace likes to point to where he wants to go, and Grandpa happily obliges.
   Time to go to the fair! Braden is lucky and gets a ride from Zach. At the fair we of course had to get some yummy fair food
Before the rodeo started we were able to go down below and go on a hay ride...
Learn how to lasso...
well at least learn to put a rope around an animal's head :) ...
and ride horses...
of all kinds.
Rodeo time!!
Jace crashed on Ross, and Cashel climbed on my lap, curled up and fell asleep as well.
Our boys sporting cowboy hats, aren't they handsome???

That night after a yummy BBQ, we had a family photo op. Here's the whole family, minus Ross, I honestly have no idea where he is...
 The grandkids...
 Mom and Dad, siblings and spouses...
While the family picts were going on there was some wrestling happening on the side...
After looking at awkward family pictures online, it was decided that the Jones wanted on of their own! Haha!
We decided to do fireworks ourselves this year, and just bought some at the store.
We got the fireworks started with sparklers,
and the, poppers (or whatever they're called).
During the fireworks, these 2 boys were pretty happy just sitting on Grandma's lap. 
This was our last night in Oregon, we got up early and headed back home the next morning. It was so much fun being all together! Love being with all the Jones family!!
