4th of July

You gotta love holidays! Especially here in Enterprise they are so family oriented! This 4th of July we had the whole Jones family in town to celebrate and have fun! In Enterprise on the 4th they usually have a program in the morning that we weren't able to attend and then races for kids 0-12, that is Carter's favorite part! If ya race you get a laffy taffy and if you win your race you get a dollar!
Ready for the races!
Baylee patiently waiting and enjoying the breeze!
Love his smile!
The kids practicing off to the side!
Enjoying the shade while we wait for the races to start!
Baylee getting ready to race! She is the one in the middle of the pic!
On your mark, get set, GO!
She ran pretty good! She also was very interested in those running around her so we weren't very quick getting to the end!
Almost there!
She made it to Mom! Carter was so excited for Baylee to race that he was very ready for his race!
Jones crowd watching the races!
Scott and Sam coming to cheer the kids on!
Carter's turn!
On your mark, get set, GO!
Super speedy!
Crossed the finish line...
... and CARTER WON FIRST PLACE!!! He beat all 3 year old boys!
So then they have the winner of the 3 year old boys and the 3 year old girls race! Before they race they ask them their names and where they live, Carter said Carter Jones and Grandma Wallin's house! Haha we haven't lived there for over a year but hey living with her was awesome! Who can blame the kid!
After they introduced themselves and where they were from they started the race and Carter WON AGAIN! Not by much but we were so excited for him! He was stoked and especially excited for his candy and dollar! After racing that's all Carter wanted to do was race race race!

She kept trying to sneak under the rope so I kept pulling her back and she would lay and giggle and get up to do it again!
Silly Bay!
There were not as many people at the races this year so they did some fun side races at the end just for fun and Carter got his wish of wanting to race more!
This one was the piggy back race! So McKay took Carter!
Also from our family was Lance and Kaitlyn, Brett and Quinny, Kyle and Treyson and Matt and Jake!
Then they had the wheelbarrow race! McKay took Carter again!
Then they had the Jones family race!
