Happy 4th of July!!!!
We had a great 4th of July here in Provo! I absolutley love it here in Utah during this time. Everyone is so patriotic, and I love the quaintness of downtown Provo during the parade and Freedom Festival. The Sunday before we listened to a great Freedom Festival speech at the Marriott Center by Glenn Beck who gave a great patriotic speech. Jeff's brother Rob came down from Denver with his wife Missy and daughters Anne, Leah, and Sarah and we had a blast hanging out with them. We went to the parade in downtown Provo with them in the morning and with Jeff's other brother Steve and his family and also some friends in our ward here. We had such a good time. It was very hot, but the streets were lined up with people waving flags and it was awesome to see everyone so partiotic. We then went up to Bridal Veil Falls to swim around in the pool of water at the bottom with the kids. We then went to Steve's house for a good old fashioned 4th of July BBQ. From the view from the house Jeff grew up in, you can see all of the mountains overlooking Provo because it is right on the ridge of Orem, so we were able to see the Stadium of Fire fireworks from his backyard. It was such a fun day! Here are some pictures below of our wonderful 4th!
This is my brave husband in his "sting-proof suit". He took down a whole wasp nest that had formed on the BBQ. It was pretty funny, the wasps weren't too happy.
We got together with Jeff's sister's family, Julie and Jared and their kids at Bajio, when they were in town. We love you guys!
We got together for Tepanyaki with Jeff's childhood friends Chris, Kevin and his wife Aryn, before we all head off to law school. These are the boys looking tough.
