I have not been as good with this blogging since summer has happened. For the first two weeks of summer, Kylee and I took some swim lessons. She did really well. In fact, she makes me nervous she is so comfortable in the water. She liked to jump in from the side of the pool, whether I was looking or not. She was so fun.
I just love the 4th of July!!! We went to the balloons early Wednesday morning. That has been a tradition since I was a little girl. They start getting ready about 5:30ish. My dad has been helping with the breakfast for years, so we get free tickets. We go and have breakfast, then walk around and see all the hot air balloons being blown up. Kylee liked the balloons from far away. Don't get her too close or else she gets afraid they are coming to get her! We then headed out to Granstville and I just LOVE the small town holidays. We didn't have to start on Sunday saving seats. Jared's dad went down the morning of the 4th to put up some chairs. We then headed to the parade and watched kids ride on bombs. That is something else. The Tooele Army Depot sends bombs to the parade and then lets kids ride on them. HMMMM!! Lots of the cars and groups that went by through candy. Kylee was stuck to Jared's knee. She does not like the sound of trucks and stayed right by us. Some of the cousins got candy for her and by the time the parade was through, that candy was smooshed in her little hands!
Granstville has got the best fireworks show around. It was like the Stadium of Fire, only not so long!!! After the Stadium of Fire, you have to wait about 4 hours for traffic to move a little so you can get out. INSANE! I really enjoyed the fireworks at Granstville. Big, huge, and beautiful!! Just what I love. And it was really great that Jayce slept through them all!
Happy 4th to everyone out there!! This is a wonderful land that we live in and are blessed to be here!!
