Fourth of July


We spent a rare 4th of July here at home.  Too much water (no rafting this year) and not enough wind (no kite boarding) kept us from our usual activities.  Instead Keith and Jenny (with their two adorable boys) visited us from Southern Idaho.  It was such a nice visit and we were able to enjoy all of the fun things about summer in Sandpoint.  Kirk and Keith spent some time figuring out the catamaran.

Izzy and Neil enjoyed ice cream and rope swings.

Although he little kids couldn't postpone bedtime till dark, we did get some fun fireworks going.  Neil gets the prize for being the most excited.

Sparklers were a hit.


In my opinion, the best part about the 4th in Sandpoint is the fireworks over the lake.  The second best part is our small town parade.  For some reason, they don't let the parade participants throw candy, so Kirk purchased a few bags of his own and had a great time throwing it out to the street for the kids to pick up.
