Epic Post

We had such an awesome 4th of July week, and I've got some great pics.  Maybe too many.  I've been putting off this post for a while, trying to figure out a way to maybe break it up, but I'm just going to go for a really long one.  Here goes!

On the day of the 4th, we went to the annual neighborhood bike parade and BBQ with my mom and dad, along with our neighbors and their boys.  This family in our neighborhood puts this on, basically out of the goodness of their hearts, and it is amazing.

Later that day, it was out to Uncle Ds for a BBQ and fireworks.  Nana gave Cole a pair of blue swim goggles so that he would be more willing to swim, and he pretty much wore them the rest of the day.

On Friday, we went hiking with the Thomsens up to the Uintahs.  Nana was kind enough to keep an eye on Jack while we were gone.  We started at Provo Falls, and ended up at one of the lakes.  

We had such a beautiful hike, but as we ate lunch, the ominous sound of thunder hit.  We started down the trail, but were too late.  It not only poured on us, it hailed on us.  Cole dubbed the hailstones "snappers."

Saturday, thanks to Jenn & Chris, I was able to go to the Bee's game in style - box seats!  It was a beautiful night, a great game, and some awesome fireworks.  Thank you both!

Finally, we had Isak and Henry spend some time with us on Sunday.  They had a great time, but it reinforced our decision that two kids is plenty.  :)
