We had a fun filled weekend on the 4th, of course spent in Richfield! There is no 4th of July like a Richfield 4th of July. It's all about tradition, family, friends, and good times. We had fun doing the festivities over the weekend which started off with the Kids Parade. Steven loved being able to ride in the wagon pulled by his cousin!
The cute Rowley kids ready to show off their stuff!
Steven LOVED his flag that he would wave like crazy
Then we went and participated in the good ol' Diaper Derby. Steven got to do the toy pull, since he was in the oldest age division
Getting ready for the Big Parade on the 4th
At the park, the Home Depot had this awesome booth that little kids could do crafts for FREE! Steven got an awesome apron, along with all his cousins, and he thought he was pretty awesome stuff. (which of course, he was)
About a week before the 4th, I randomly woke up one morning and said, I want to make a star shaped cake for the 4th...so here was my attempt. My sis-in-law made the awesome firecracker pretzels
Steven loved the fireworks and would say "Bang Bang!" or "pop pop" depending on how loud they were. Here he is throwing snappers while waiting for it to get dark
We decided to bring Steven's Home Depot craft home, and he got to put it together with Daddy for FHE.
The Race Track in it's finished stages. Steven loves it!
Steven also won a goldfish at the park. It's fun to see him have his very first pet, whom we have lovingly named "Fishy." Steven helps me feed Fishy every morning, and will knock on the bowl, which makes the fish swim around like crazy. He loves it!

I love the one with him in the Home Depot apron. Just like a little man.
Lucy made a planter at Home Depot and won a prize to boot!
Oh and your star cake looks yummy - I like the chocolate-covered pretzels, nice touch!
Love his face in the last picture. He looks so protective of fishy :) He's getting so big!
