4th of July

I had fully intended to use my day off from work on Friday working, since I have another event fast approaching. But when Steph came to do the yard work that morning, she put an end to those plans. :-) First, she convinced me that I needed to go swimming with them ...

and then shopping at the Outlet Mall in Park City ...

playing on the playground ...

and finally, home to ride bikes.


On Saturday, I actually did try to get a little done (never as much as I should do ...) before heading over to Steph & Mickel's for a BBQ ...
and the fireworks at Sugarhouse Park.

I didn't know this, but apparently this year was to be the last for fireworks at Sugarhouse, so I'm glad I went. Though I haven't been for a few years, it still draws just as many people as ever. Plus you get a pretty good view of the fireworks put on at the Country Club. Since Steph and Mickel only live about a mile away, we were able to walk and avoid all the traffic mess (well, at least until I got back to the West Jordan area afterwards).

Mom tossing the football

Now, how do you throw this Mom?


And, Dad, how did you put those glo-sticks on your head?

Eating too many treats

A full moon ... and luckily it did NOT rain as was predicted.

All in all, it was a GREAT 4th of July weekend. I'm sure that Kris and Sterling had an equally great holiday up at Bear Lake with their newly fixed boat! And Happy Birthday to Sterling tomorrow!
