July is over and done with - gasp!
Here's how we spent it...
Watermelon smiles
The Logan fireworks show @ USU stadium on the 3rd
that my Uncle (waving from behind, in the red shirt) started clear back when I was a child....and I've loved going ever since!

Summer nights sunsets...
Fireworks...
...and family rounded out our 3rd of July!
Neighborhood party on the 4th of July - shaving cream and cheese puff game!
Summer cockroaches - bleh!
The girls and I went to "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" that my cousin was the Musical Director for!
And then out for shave ice - the BIG Kahuna - afterwards!

Hooray for the full-time missionaries in the Farmington Festival Days parade!

Matt caught TWO shirts that they were throwing out at the evening festivities in the park - Brookelle immediately donned it as her new dress!
We {heart} our Farmington Festival Days
Family Night activity - climbing to the top of a neighborhood tree.
Annual read-a-thon and pizza picnic in our family room.
Katelyn got her long locks cut off!
Katelyn fed her obsession got crafty making bracelets
Katelyn & Brookelle were in the Days of '47 Children's Parade in SLC
Fresh Lime treats!
When the school supplies hit the shelves, we jumped on it!

Lagoon
The new ride, Cannibal!
It's description: Cannibal lifts riders 208 feet and plunges them into a 116° beyond vertical free-fall into an underground tunnel
We ALL survived, although there WAS some crying and closed eyes involved. We also rode it while it was raining, so we were privileged to get pelted in the face with rain drops during our ride; the ride that was not open by Lagoon's season opening day because the dummies were falling out on the test runs; the same ride we noticed, as we waited in line, had a swaying/wobbling inverted loop when the coaster went around that section of the track - Oh, my!
Road trip to St. George in the EARLY morning hours, as the sun is just coming up.
Nothing quite like the hot days of Summer, standing by Port-a-Pottys watching a Pioneer Day Parade!
Hooray for the full-time missionaries (again!), singing, "Called to Serve," in this parade in Washington, UT
Kyle got the silver medal running in the 16 yr. old foot race (because he was the only 15 yr. old who wanted to race, he "ran up.") and won In-N-Out Burger coupons, too!
Sparklers & firecrackers in the street to finish off the Pioneer Day weekend.
(including the "grand finale" that sent many of us RUNNING & SCREAMING, like last year!) ;)
4-Wheeling in the property behind my parents' house
Our Annual Movie Marathon. This year's titles: "Penguins of Madagascar," "Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb," "Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2," and "The Book of Life"
I attended the first day of this 2-day Women's Conference to close out the month of July.
