Utah

Just a little synopsis of our two weeks in beautiful Cache Valley.
The Fireworks in Logan.
One of my favorite parts of the fireworks is watching the kids faces light up as they are going off. You can always see the wonder in their eyes.
Every year we go with Ryan and Shanelle Frandsen to the fireworks. It is another one of our wonderful fourth traditions. The kids loved their Little Cesar's and the parents enjoyed a little Fredrico's and Jamba Juice, very yummy!

Lovin' the sparklers.

Our 4th of July best. I found these cute matching outfits at Children's Place and fell in love with them.


The oh so loved Hyrum Parade.

Pierce was so excited when the flags were handed out.
Swimming at Gra and Papa's with Livie. Pierce was freezing but that didn't stop him from going down the slide teeth chattering and chin quivering.

Swimming at the Logan Aquatic Center. The kids both loved the twisty slide. Pierce called it, "little big splash".


Feeding the ducks by Steph and Dave's house. Allee and Pierce had so much fun spending time with Christy, Gra, Papa, and of course Aaavvvvaa (somehow translated that is Livie).


You can't go anywhere without playing a little ball.
ECLIPSE!!!!


My Mom found my sisters and I matching shirts for the movie. We loved it and wore them proudly all night. We did get a few odd looks when we went to Juniper Take Out to eat, but those people had no idea how cool we are. Becky had her traditional preview party and even though she had to move it indoors at the last minute it was a hit. Everyone loved the trivia and raffle and the highlight of the evening was when Becky and her brothers played the theme song to Eclipse. They were AWESOME! One word, the movie was SPECTACULAR. Everything I hoped it would be and it was really fun to have a girls night!

  1. Looks like you guys had a great time back home! So glad -- but I will say that we missed you here in MO. Can't wait to hear more about the trip when we get together. Was hoping that would be today, but I've got a lot of tree branches to get rid of yet!
