Our summer has been packed full of activities so it is flying by!
Palmer loves being outside so we spend a lot of time outdoors and he
usually manages to get wet or dirty which means a lot of changing
clothes. We didn't have any big vacation plans (other than a quick
getaway to Lava Hot Springs with my family) but we've kept ourselves
pretty busy and entertained just close to home. One of the things that
we have loved doing is going on bike rides with our "new" (off KSL) bike
trailer. We love exploring around town and it's such a nice way to do
it. We also we were lucky to buy the Pass of all Passes for dang cheap
($10 each) so we have gone to Raging Waters multiple times and also to
Trafalga, Tracy Aviary, a Bees game, and bowling all for free! I
absolutely love living so close to all of these places and family and
friends so Palmer and I can keep ourselves entertained during the hot
summer days. I just feel bad that Brad has to go to work each day and
miss out on the fun. Luckily summer is only half over so we can keep on
having a blast for awhile longer!

Every year we spend the Fourth of July with Brad's
family in Deweyville. We go to the Deweyville Breakfast and Parade. It
is always a good time. The parade lasts for just a few minutes (until
they turn around at the end of the route and you get to see everything a
second time) but it's always a very patriotic event. Palmer rode in
the parade with Grandma Leann on a prowler and loved it. His cousins
rode in a tractor with Kenny. After the parade all the kids run to an
open field and an airplane flies past multiple times and drops little
parachutes with candy hooked to them. It's quite the event! This year
after the parade we all met at Brad's parents house, had a bbq, and set
up a huge slip 'n slide on their back hill and had a fun time playing in
the water. I was sad when I realized I didn't get any pictures of the
slip 'n slide (just video). We ended the night by going to see some
fireworks in town. It was a fun filled day!
