We are so enjoying being warm and having summer now that July is here. I know friends in the northeast have had enough HOT weather, but we are enjoying summer.
We had a nice celebration for the 4th of July on July 5th with Julie and her family. Hamburgers, corn on the cob, watermelon, etc. and a cake that was frosted to look like a watermelon. We ate too much but it was a Holiday!
Next weekend is our family reunion celebration planned by our children and we are so excited! All of our kids will be here with us for 5 days. Ali flies in on Monday with Bryson, Hunter is already in Utah. Mary Lou is coming from Texas on Wednesday and bringing two of her children with her, Betsy and Tony Jr. Scott and two of his children, Zane and Avery are coming on Thursday. Scott and Ali are staying up here in Cache valley with us and Mary Lou is going to stay down in Fruit Heights with Julie and her family. But location does not matter. We will be together!
Next Friday we are having family portraits taken by a professinal photographer in groups and in families and of course with all of us. they will be outdoors up at the University where there are many places - trees - stairs etc. to use for interest and background.
Friday will include activities for everyone, the main ones are horse back riding and target shooting, with swimming thrown in for good measure. Friday night is a family dinner at a favorite steak house. Saturday we all take off early in the morning to travel to Flaming Gorge to go rafting on the Green River. Wow memories are made or these kinds of experiences.
I will post more after our adventure.
