A Rupert Fourth

This year, Brad and I were lucky enough to spend the Fourth of July in Rupert! We had a great day filled with patriotic events. First, we woke up early to go to a little program about Veterans and independence at the church, followed by some delicious donuts and drinks. After that we made our way to town to watch the Rupert Independence Day Parade! What great fun it was. We had some awesome seats right in front of city hall (a Jurgensmeier tradition) and we enjoyed watching the floats, cars, veterans, horses, and tractors go by! (and BOY where there some big tractors!!









After the parade, we headed home to grill up some burgers outside! It was a delicious American meal, courtesy of Brad. Then we spent some time playing cards with some family friends and headed over to Burley to see Transformers 3, which was AWESOME!!! We of course ended the evening watching some amazing fireworks over the river. It was a great day! Happy Fourth everyone!
