Family, Fireworks, and Fun!

Happy 4th of July!

I love the 4th...not as much as my birthday or Christmas, but a close 3rd! This year things were a little hectic because we've been spending our weekends searching for our new dream home (I think we found it... but more on that in another post!). We didn't make it up to The Land until late Saturday night. Even though we didn't have a lot of time, we still had a lot of fun with our families!

Carson, Colton, and Makayla had fun together

 We spent a good portion of the weekend painting the garage. Carson and Colton even helped with the big task.

 Makayla, on the other hand, just chilled in her chair. It's tough work being an adorable baby!

 We did find some time for playing, eating, and laughing together.

On Monday we had a BBQ with my side of the family. My camera was dead, so I didn't get any pictures, but the kids had so much fun playing together and doing fireworks when it was finally dark. I absolutely LOVE being back in Salt Lake and spending time with our families! Even though our move has been tough for us, we love being back up here!!

P.S. Just thought I would post this picture of The Land taken a few weeks ago, just to show how much snow and rain we have had this year. This is over Wolf Creek Pass on the way to the Land. It has been kind of scary because of flooding this year, but I think now the worst of it is finally over!

Crazy, huh?!
