The 4th of July

We had a great 4th of July, bouncing between Marcus' grandparents' home in Genola and Margaret's home in Salt Lake. I only have a couple pictures of Margaret's BBQ and the Sugarhouse fireworks, but we had a fun time in Genola too. Marcus' family and his aunt Tracy and her family were all down there, so it was pretty exciting. Lots of people--Tons of food!

Rea, Annie, Amy, Randy, Alex, Max, Rick, Denise, Margaret, Bob, Mike, and his two boys were there too. Hopefully I didn't miss anyone. It was a lot of fun, and the food was delicious. After dinner, we played with sparklers...

Alex Maurer with his sparkler. I should have taken more pictures of him and his baby brother Max-- they're too cute.


I had three different flames on this sparkler, but they died right as the picture was taken, hence the sad face.

Later some of us went down to Sugarhouse Park to watch the last fireworks show there. It was amazing-- this picture does no justice. And we only had to wait about an hour after the fireworks to be able to drive on the crazy busy streets. :)

We had a blast this past busy weekend seeing lots of family and eating more than we should have. Now it's been back to homework and work for Marcus and more job applications for me.

Happy Fourth!

  2. We loved seeing you on the 4th and are very envious of your upcoming beach trip with the Gardners'. We love the beach!!! Be safe and keep in touch. We want to see more pictures on your blog. This is a great tool to see what is going on in your life. We wish the best to Marcus' brother, Paden. We hope he will be safe and hope that his mission is a fantastic experience for him.
