4th of July

It was such a fun 4th this year. This just happens to be Jon's favorite holiday. We started our morning with a breakfast at the church house, then to the Clearfield parade, home for a nice long nap, out to my mom's for swimming and bbq, and then on to the Clearfield fireworks.

Trying to line the kids up for a pic at the fireworks.
Mine was the only not cooperating.

Wrestlin with cousin Isaac.

Tag ended up watching some of the fireworks snuggled right up to cousin Jayde.
What's more American than Yankee's hats?
Tag covered his face at the beginning of the fireworks.
It took him a minute, but he got used to the loud bangs.

Happy 25th Birthday Sweets!

Lucky summer birthdays! There are so many fun things to do! Jon wanted to go boating with his family. We went to Willard and a had a lovely day. Tag had a literal freak out in the boat and would not wear a life jacket, so let's just say he's not an avid boater yet, but he had fun playing on the beach and throwing rocks into the water.





Later that night, Kristi kept Tag while we went out to dinner and to pick out Yankee's hats (Jon's gift). He also got a sweet Yankee's jersey from his parents. When we got back we shot off some fireworks with the fam at the Bushes. Thanks for the good times family!

We Heart The Raptors!!

First game of the season for us and they won!! We went during Jon's Birthday week. I just love love love being in a baseball stadium! The first time I went to a game was when the Salt Lake Team was still The Buzz. My Dad had called into some sports talk show and had me sing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" to win tickets. It was such a fun experience. Oh, and just a funny random memory of this...When he called in we were sitting in his old white truck outside of the old Winegar's in Clinton. Yes, that means we were on a cell phone. I was probably 11 and it was the first cell phone I had seen. It was one of those massive black bricks with a lengthy antenna. My Dad was the coolest man alive with his sleek cell phone:)

Look Amanda and Brock! Cool pic, huh?

He's actually not sweating. He was spraying himself in the face with a fan squirt bottle.



I have a feeling these two will see many more games together.






Grandma chased Tag around almost the entire time.


Tag was actually pretty interested in watching at times.

Awwww, nothing makes me happier!
We have a load of free general admission tickets if anyone ever wants to come with us! Give us a call!

Jammin at Josh Gracin!

Good Friends+Josh Gracin+Carney Food=Excellent Summer Night!


Timpanogas Cave Hike...or Not.

I was so excited to hike Timp cave last month, but sadly, after the long drive we were told they had sold out of tickets. There had been a rock slide in the morning, so everyone had to wait until the afternoon and even with my begging they were not about to let us tour the cave, so we headed back down to Thanksgiving Point and took Tag to Farm Country. It was only $3.50 a person and Tag enjoyed harassing the animals. The highlight of the trip??? Jon pointing to a nearby cow and asking the farmer boy, "Did he just get milked?" The boy responded, "yes, she did." Bahh ha ha! It was good fun!




I hope this is the only time I see my boy behind bars:)


How lame! I didn't even take pictures of the real animals!!
Moral of the story....call and reserve your cave tickets!

Just the three of us...
