Where did July Go?!?! PART 2

We have had such a fun summer, and I don’t want it to end.  July 10th, we went fishing in the Uintas with my parents, Ashlee, and Brad.  We had a fun time. First we went to tea pot lake, but there were no fish, so we went to Mirror Lake and found an awesome spot. We all caught lots of fish.

Friday July 15th we decided to get the tent out and make sure it good to take on our camping trip the following weekend.  We thought it would be fun to sleep out in the backyard since it was already up.  Thank goodness we tested everything out because both air mattress went flat, we went out and bought two new ones for our next campout.   

The boys new thing is showing off there “guns”

 

 

 

Riding around the backyard

 

 

 

Tommy even made us a peach cobbler in the dutch oven in the backyard.  That night our friends called and invited us to go boating to Deer Creek with them the next day, so  I went in and got things ready to go, while the boys watch a movie outside on the deck.

Time to call it a night.

 

We were all so excited to go boating.  We went with Justin, Julie, Landon.  I had not been on boat since around Jr. High.  I decided to try wake boarding for my first time.  I got up on my first try!! (I only stayed up for a few seconds, but, I’ll take it) After a few tries I got better and better and stayed up longer and longer.  I LOVED IT!! Tommy also went wake boarding, he was nervous about getting up (he did not want his wife showing him up) He got up each time no problem and did AWESOME!! We also went tubing (the boys both thought it was so fun), swimming and Tommy and I both did wake surfing.  We had such a fun day with our great friends. 

Wahoo!!

 

 

 

 

The boys loved to hold up the flag

We went camping to the Spruces with my family (minus Brad who was in Colorado with his friends, and of course Matt and Chels who are in North Carolina) July 21-July 24th, I broke my camera so I didn’t get any pictures.  We had so much fun hiking, fishing, throwing rocks in the stream, playing cards, riding bikes, and just enjoying family time.  We came home July 24th, unpacked, had much needed showers then went to my parents for fireworks.  We also did some Monday night, my family are firebugs and we can’t get enough fireworks.  We had such a fun July, hope August is just as great

Where did July go??

Wow, it feels like summer just started, yet summer is just about over.  Here is what our July has been like…….

 

Sean got his very own package from the UPS man (boy was he excited.)

Uncle Matt and Aunt Chelsee sent him his birthday present

 

  Slip n’ slide fun

 

 

Carson good not quite figure out how to slide down, so he made is own way

 

Have you bought your tickets???…… For the GUN show !!!!

 

 

 

We have spent many days and nights out jumping on the tramp

 

 

 

 

On July 2nd, we went to Riverton Days.  We went last year with our friends and could not wait to go again this year with them.  We spent the afternoon riding rides, and watched the awesome fireworks at night.  My parents were busy during the day, but they came and watched fireworks with us.

Monday the 5th Tommy and I did not have to work so we went to the Jordan Parkway for a bike ride with my parents and sister.

With all the rain we had, the bridge to go under the road was flooded, so we could not go any further that way,

we stopped to throw rocks, which my boys could do ALL day.

 

Fun times

 

Later that night we went back to my parents for some pizza and fireworks.

Also in July we went to the zoo with our friends.  We sure do LOVE the zoo!!!

July 22nd Kennecott Copper mine was doing free tours for the week, we decided to take the boys and go.  I have not been there since elementary for a field trip.   My parents came with, we had to take a bus up to the mine.  The boys were in heaven watching all the big trucks driving up and down the road.

Carson, loved the magnifying glass, except he put his mouth up to it instead of his eyes

 

 

 

After the mine and McDonalds we headed out to Layton, for Layton days.  We had good time wondering around.  After that we headed out to see my Grandpa Snider

 

 

Sean has been asking for a spray fan all summer, he had to get his favorite color…orange

 

 

We played at grandpas for awhile, then took the kids to the park.
