every year for the 4th of july, we have a big family campout up in utah on our family's property in nephi canyon.
they have been doing it since my dad was a baby.
i look forward to it every year!
home sweet homefor the weekend at least
we have a lot of veterans in our family, so on the 4th we retired old flags.uncle mark put on a ceremony and it was quite emotional.
above is uncle richard cutting apart the stripes on the flag so it could then be burned/retired.
i realize this looks kind of bad...we are not just burning a flag in some kind of weird protest.
they had several old flags that needed to be retired, and after the ceremony, we were able to take one and retire it if we wanted. it was a cool experience and i'm glad i got to do it.
while we were up in utah, we got to take an afternoon and meet up with cosmo's family for lunch.it was good to see everyone and we had a good time with great food!
keep reading the next couple posts for all of our campout adventures!
happy 4th of july!
