4th of July!!!!
















I would have to say that this 4th of July has been my favorite ever!!! We started off my heading to Mayfield to go 4-wheelin with our friends Jason and Kim and their 3 boys. Their boys are super fun and FULL of energy. The best part is they think we're cool so we always have at least one of them wanting to ride in our truck or jeep. So this time we got Mitch. I have to admit that he's my favorite (I can say that since I know Hunter and Dawson will never read this). Anyway, Mitch is 5 and has the best blond curly hair. So anyway, as we're driving to Mayfield I taught Mitch how to pump his arm up and down out the window whenever we pass a semi-truck. He didn't believe me that they would honk until he tried it for the first time. Luckily the driver let out a big ole honk and you should have seen Mitch jump! Jed and I were laughing so hard. The next picture is of the Lavender fields in Mona that we passed on our way to Mayfield. Aren't they pretty! --not a bad shot seeing as it was from the truck window going about 90mph on the highway!


















I love this shot. It is of Jason and Kim and their boys on their motorcycles. Jason traded Kim's 4-wheeler in last year and got her a motorcycle instead. She's tough! I was thinking that I wanted a dirtbike also but seeing how hard the ride was on Wednesday I'm not so sure anymore. We stopped at a little creek for the kids to play in. They were loving it.

































Last but not least we made it back just in time for Stadium of Fire. Here's a little story about the Stadium of Fire and why I insisted on going this year. Well about five years ago we went to the Stadium of Fire when Jed and I were dating and at the end of the night he took me home and broke up with me! So needless to say the Stadium of Fire has been more like the Stadium of Doom in my mind. I told Jed we had to go again now that we're happily married so we could have a good experience and erase the old memory! I happy to say it worked!!!! We had a GREAT time with Missy and Cody. We had awesome seats and I thought the show was great. Now I'm trying to convince Jed that we need to go back to Hawaii to erase that terrible memory of breaking up when we got home! I'm thinking Jed is quickly realizing it would have just been easier and cheaper to have married me about 3 years earlier than to now try and erase all the many, many bad break up memories!!! At least it has a happy ending!!!!

Tell Jed he has to take us to Hawaii too since we had to go through the heartache with you! I am sure he will totally go for that...

Those mountain roads look very familiar to me. I grew up going camping there every summer.
