July 1-6

Well the madness continued this week at the Afualo Abbey!  We made it a full and fun week. Tuesday we went up to Park City hoping to find relief from the heat down in the Valley.  No such luck.  It was really hot up there too, but we all enjoyed riding the alpine slide and alpine coaster.  It was a fun way to pass the day.

After another fun day at 7 peaks everyone came over for dinner on the 3rd of July so we started celebrating a little early.  We had yummy food, and fun, kid friendly fireworks!! 

We decided to have a 4th of July Breakfast Extravegaza!  It was a lot of fun and a lot of food and it was all red, white and blue!!  It was way yummy.  We listened to patriotic music, played nerts and had a hair day for all the girls.  Well, I did all the girls hair.

The traditional Flag Cake!

Love my Family!!

Love my sisters!!

We went to Stadium of Fire down in Provo the evening of the 4th.  Carly Rae Jepson and Kelly Clarkson were performing.  It was quite the event and we all had a really great time.  The girls loved singing along to Call Me Maybe and Good Times!

 One of the dances that we watched.  They were giant slinkies.  Way cool!!

 Noah had a swim meet at 7am on the 5th of July.  That was a tough one.  It was all the way out in Magna which is about 35 minutes from us.  Noah gave it his best effort and is posting consistent times in his events.  That means it's time to go faster.  He had a meet the morning of the 6th as well.  These double headers are brutal. 

 We had a church activity on the 5th of July in our neighborhood.  It was a bike parade and ice cream social.  It was fun until the storm blew in and we had thunder, lightning and rain to deal with.  We made it home though before it got to crazy.

 Now everyone is gone and the house seems awfully quiet.  What a wild and crazy 2 weeks it has been.
