4th of July


Well, July 4th has made us think of the many freedoms we enjoy in the USA. Jeff and I have compared it to the lifestyle and governments of Bolivia. We are so blessed to live in this great nation, but we must still fight for it, as people want to take these freedoms away. This has hit home more than usually due to all the coverage of the elections, It is the first time I have really followed the process. Well, Grantsville does a small parade, it is not without some of the amenities of that larger cities enjoy, has a small carnival, and fireworks at night. We loved the parade, Emma got scared of the sirens though, but that was fine with Dad as he enjoys more of the sitting back and relaxing aspect of parade watching. It was a great time spending the majority of the day with friends and neighbors, actually one of our neighbors reserved a spot for over 25 people (their neighbors). Before fireworks we had some of the neighbors come over and we ate ice cream, brownies and lit off fireworks. It was really fun.


Things we each love- We will start with Emma.


Swing, read books, Dance,help out, Popsicles,and off course DADDY!!!!!
To be continued with Seth and then Mommy the following week.
