The 4th of JULY

I LOVE LOVE the 4th of July. Back when all of my family lived here we would all go camping up in Heber and see the parade and fireworks celebrated the weekend of the Forth. Now this year we will still enjoy that same tradition but 7 people will be missing. It will be Ree and Trent, and Maegan and Colvin and us. This year our plan is to go to up to Mom and Dad Pearces cabin instead of camping so the little ones won't get cold at night and will have a bed to sleep in. We will leave tomorrow for our cabin camp out, yay! 

We will spending alot of time up there this month. We will be going up next weekend too for the Pearce Reunion and then 2 weeks later for the Vanepps Reunion. I'm excited to be out of the heat and spend so much time with family.

On the actual 4th we went to our friends Regan's. We swam and had a bbq then went to Apache Junction at night for the firework show. The weather on the forth was nothing short of AMAZING. It was over cast and rained for just a little it was in the 80's all day and I was in heaven. Nog went out and mowed the lawn and trimmed first thing in the morning so we thought we would go out and watch and paint our nails while we waited. Well Koli wouldn't stay still so more like she watching me paint mine. She was still really really excited. When it started raining we moved our blanket to the front door instead so we wouldn't get yet. But Koli decided she wanted to get wet anyways. She crawled right into the rain and when she did she looked back at me and gave me the biggest smile how could I move her out of it. So I let her play in the rain for a little and she loved it.

Regan and I have been friends since I can remember but she moved to Tuscan for a couple years and we hadn't really seen each other for about 7 years. Now she is back and we got to talking and now we are inseparable. It feels like no time was lost. She is the best friend ever I love her!!

Waiting for the fireworks to start.

 Brain freeze, I wonder were Koli got that tongue of hers...

Forth of July celebration to be continued....

Like Father, Like Daughter

Tonight after diner Nog got called off to a plumbing job so I decided I would watch a movie while I waited for him to return. I went into the Arizona room looking through all of our movies (I really wanted a chick flick) but got nothin.... Then I came across our wedding video so I watched that instead. I haven't seen it since Koli's been born and it was so much fun seeing baby pictures of us and seeing how she looks exactly like her daddy. But she's so pretty and her Dad is hot that's for sure! I was thinking how fun it will be some day when we have all of our kids and we all sit down and watch our wedding video.

Then came up this picture and I almost died when I saw it, are you serious? These two are twins! It's the cutest thing ever. This picture says it all.

haha ya, like father like daughter. :)
