Normally we spend time with family on holidays, but my parents were going out of town and all of our siblings were doing things with their in-laws, so Ty and I decided to do our own thing and the day turned out to be really fun. We started out the day by going to the annual Brighton Breakfast up Big Cottonwood Canyon. The singles' ward that Ty and I met in is the ward that puts it on, so we thought we would take Madelyn back to our roots. The food is average, but the atmosphere is fun. You're in the mountains and they have a little parade and live music. It brought back a lot of memories. We then headed to Cottonwood Heights Recreation Center to swim at the outdoor pool. Then that night we went to our favorite burger place, JCW's, which is conveniently down the street from us now, and had a burger, cheese fries, and a shake. I highly recommend it. Then finally we went to our friends house to watch the Thanksgiving Point fireworks. It was a great show, except for the 30 minutes it took us to get just 2 miles home. Overall, we had a great time celebrating the 4th, and being the last holiday we'll celebrate as a family of 3!
