Stadium of Fire

The symbols of summer for me... Sun, BBQs, Twist Cones, and Stadium of Fire. For many years I have watched this grand fireworks show from afar wondering what was really happening inside the Stadium of Fire. What was I missing? I felt like a poor peasant woman watching from outside the grand Colusseum, wishing I could be with the rich aristocrats feasting on fun inside. Well this year I got the upperclass ticket, I was entering the Lavell Edwards Stadium to feast on the fun of Stadium of Fire! I have to admit spending money to see fireworks hasn't really excited me in past years. But this year Carrie Underwood was coming to celebrate July 4th with me. I enjoy Carrie Underwood and feel like we could be friends someday so I decided to put out the money and support my future friend and see the fireworks spectacular on the INSIDE.

I was not disappointed, there was singing, dancing, a flyover by some fancy jets, and of course, Carrie. The Osmond Second generation and some piano kids were also showcased at this event, but I was there for Carrie. I am pretty sure the Entertainer of the Year was holding back, but I was entertained nonetheless. I would totally spend lots of money to see her full show.

The fireworks were splendid, we had a great view, and of course my friends were a great addition to the evening. I can now join the Utah County throng of millions whose lives have been changed by celebrating the birth of their country through song, dance, and fireworks! There is even a song... Stadium of Fire! Duh(pause) Duh,Duh!


Here we are getting ready for the big event! Don't we look like we love our country!


Carrie Underwood belting out the tunes. She is so cute and lovely. I am awaiting her Facebook Friend confirmation. (Fingers crossed!)



View from the INSIDE! Now I know, and knowing is half the battle!


The whole gang! We had a BBQ earlier and then the Stadium of Fire. We celebrated good!
