Hands down one of the best parts of summer is Fiesta Days in Spanish Fork on the 24th of July. We always kick off Fiesta Days by getting together with all of my mom's side of the family and going to the rodeo together...which is by the way the best activity of all!! The other things we never miss are the SF parade (which used to be alot more exciting when it was acceptable to chase after all of the candy that they throw), eating big fatty scones for dinner at the park (and kettle corn for mom), the huge family reunion with my dad's side of the family (I usually know about 5% of the people there), and fireworks (Dane's favorite part of the 24th). Dane has two obsessions in this world....me and fireworks, jk. But seriously he is a firework freak!! We did fireworks at my mom and dad's house and he was getting frustrated because the wind was blowing a little (duh, we were in SF) but the fireworks weren't reaching their potential height because of the wind so Dane wasn't able to fully enjoy them because he was so busy testing out shields for the fireworks from the wind (it ended up being a huge card table that he put in the middle of the road) haha lucky for him the wind let up for the best fireworks that he saved for the end. I love that Dane gets so excited over stuff like that though it makes it so much more fun.
