July 2012 Catch Up

Uh, yeah..... well, it's been a while since I posted photos and family doings. 

We had a nice little 4th of July at my mom's house...just the three of us. We watched the fireworks through the trees from Sugarhouse Park.  Then, we lit off our own little fountains...by "we" I mean "Eric" lit them off. Here are a few of the pictures:

July 11, we went to dinner to celebrate Eric's dad's birthday. John and Laura bought dinner for their family and friends. Here are the pictures I liked:

July 24, Eric and I spent the evening at my Mom's house. Richard, Andrew, Collin, and Marcus joined us; As well as Eric's mom, Kathy, Evan and Chance. I made some jello popcorn  I pinned on Pinterest.  We had a great time!

This kind of sums up our July 2012.  We enjoyed our summer, watched sunsets, relaxed in our nice cool basement playing video games.

My 4th of July

Today is Independence Day!

Today my mom joined me and Eric at the lake. It was my first time up there this year and I had really missed our jaunts. We pulled in and sat down and immediately a wave of relaxation came over all of us. "We're home."

The water is still incredibly high - about 4 feet from the bottom of the steps. We had none of the heat of the city - not a TON of people because the water was so high. (that didn't hurt our feelings any, either.)

I took this little video because I love the sounds of the waves.



Dante was happy to see us when we dropped Mom off at the house. No big surprise he was unhappy that we'd been gone ALL DAY and the audacity to return! Bark-bark-bark! I got a little video of that, too.

Later, Eric and I decided to stay home from seeing the fireworks because I work my graveyard job - And the dogs don't really like fireworks. We heard the ones from Sugarhouse and I presume Granite High (or possibly Liberty Park).

I love the 4th of July! It's supposed to be relaxing - and that's just what it was!

Happy Independence Day!!

I want to wish everyone a safe and wonderful

4th of July!

Keep it fun!

Keep it safe!
