We had a great 4th of July weekend. Our good friends the Garfields came from Tucson. They arrived Thursday afternoon and we started it all off at a double-header softball game that Ron was playing in. It was hotter than hell out there and the Garfields were dying. They are not use to the heat. Even though they lived here in Vegas 2 years ago they kinda got use to cooler weather.

Friday morning Ron, Val and the rest of the guys went dirt bike riding. They left early morning when its not so hot. Joel had invited some girl to go riding with them. I guess she was kinda like a guy the way they were talking about her but she got lost and they spent awhile looking for her. We heard all about it the rest of the evening. We then went swimming over some friends house who went out of town for the weekend. They have a lovely pool and backyard and we spent the rest of the afternoon there cooling down and enjoying each others company. We had invited The Brimhalls over to. Kids had a blast. That evening we went over to Dale Tullis house and he had a big BBQ going on. There was lots of people and lots of good food. Watched fireworks in the street and then a great show we could see coming from Athem Country Club. We were all pretty beat by the end of the night.

Saturday the guys did another dirt bike riding trip and the rest of us slept in and later when the guys got home the men took the little ones to the movies. They say Wall-E. Heard it was a pretty boring show. Adisynn feel asleep for part of it and the rest of us got to go shopping. Great sales I might add. That evening we took all the kids over to the Brimhalls house and they had pizza and played while we went to Town Square for dinner at CPK. Yum, it was delicious. That pretty much sums up our weekend. We were supposed to go to Summit, Utah to my parents house but I was glad that the Garfields came instead. I was dreading the drive home from Utah on Sunday if we had gone. The traffic is always a mess coming back home from a holiday. Bumper to bumper and Ron's driving scares me. Hehe. :)

It sounds like it was such a fun time! We know quite a few Brimhalls. I wonder if they are related. It sure can be a small world! Well, Nate sure is looking forward to meeting all of you! There have been quite a few times when I have asked him who he is texting. He has replied quite a few times, that it was your cute daughter. He is leaving tonight at midnight. Then he meets up with my brother in law for a 24 hour shift. I think the kids plan to meet on Friday. Toooo cute! :)

Sounds like a really fun holiday weekend! That is one gorgeous pool! (I thought Wall-E was kinda slow too. I liked Panda waaaaaaaay better!)

I'm glad your 4th was great. We missed you. Ella keeps asking about Addie. Looking forward to tomorrow. I hope she behaves. She's throwing some pretty big fits now.
