A Night at the Range

Poor Recon had to lay at home cause he doesn't have opposable thumbs

Happy 4th

We had a great long holiday weekend. It was so nice to enjoy some time off with Ryan and my family. Ryan and I went off roadin up the mountain on Saturday night, set up a nice cozy spot in the back of the truck and sat back and enjoyed the stadium of fire and all the other fireworks across the valley. It was so quite and peaceful from where we were and the view was amazing. We also had fun over the weekend golfing with my parents, having a wonderful dinner at the cabin with Grandma and Grandpa Clyde, walking around the Provo Center Street festival and driving to Wyoming early Monday morning to buy these...

We threw a little family party at our house last night. We played b-ball, ate smoked chicken and brats, and of course the boys put on an awesome firework show for us. My favorite of all were the flying flowers and the giant aerials. 

Eamon was so cute. Amazed by the fireworks, he would stare wide-eyed and flap his arms in excitement when they went off.

 Mom and dad got to sit back, relax and enjoy the show

 As well as G&G

And guess who else....

It started raining, so we took a break to enjoy the flag cake I made. I told everyone that I made it in honor of Ryan's cousin Cody who is serving as a marine in Afghanistan right now. We are so proud of his courage and dedication to our country. Thanks to him and everyone else who are fighting for our freedom.

The rain slowed down and eventually stopped, then we got to move on the the big boy fireworks. 

Ryan told me not to post this pic because he looks really goofy. But I'm gona anyways cause he'll never know, since he doesn't ever read my blog.

And here's a few pics from golfing the other day...

I had to post these pics real fast cause they make me laugh. A few days back Ryan, Matt, my mom and I all went out golfing. A huge rain storm blew in right after we started so we had to get a rain check. We were all completely soaking wet and my mom thought it was pretty funny. We all laughed and then went back the next day and enjoyed a perfectly sunny day.
