Birthday, Fireworks, Cabin....FUN!!!

This has been another fun and busy month, I love July for many reasons! I get to celebrate Dallas's birthday, by thinking of fun things for him to do, and lots of fireworks the day after his birthday to continue the celebration!
 HAPPY LATE JULY 4th!! That was really just a relaxing day for us and I can't remember why we weren't hoping from family to family like we usually do! We wanted to just do our own fireworks that night, but then my mom called and invited us to the Kaysville fireworks at Davis High. It was a lot of fun, I grabbed a delicious funnel cake and Dallas ate a Navajo taco (which looked delicious, but not as good as homemade!!) After the fireworks we headed home to do some more fireworks, and then the clock hit midnight and we saved the biggest for last in honor of Dallas's birthday!

Oh its just us

On July 5th we celebrated Dallas's birthday, this boy loves his birthday so I always like to plan it BIG so I decided on a scavenger hunt.I told Dallas weeks before that I had to "work" on his birthday, (but not really) which really bummed him out! So on his birthday morning, I "left" for work (I went to Farmington and got my haircut). The first clue I texted him, but I had to be precise on the time I sent it because I didn't know how long it would take him and one of his clues was to hop onto frontrunner and come to Farmington, and the trains only came every hour. Dallas had lots of different tasks to complete, and lots of different places to go, with his GRAND PRIZE being going to gateway to see Transformers in 3-D  (which may not be a grand prize to you, but he had been waiting and waiting and waiting to see this movie!!) Everything went perfectly and he had a lot of fun! I'm bummed because I forgot to have him take pictures while on his hunt!


Macy went with me to pick up Dallas, I cut my hair off so I had to bring someone he recognized...haha. As he walked off of frontrunner, I had my car decorated with two oversize tickets to Transformers.


Since we were going to see a movie I had to make a birthday themed cake! I had to hurry while making it cause it was so hot in our house the frosting was melting!!







Then this past weekend for the 24th of July My mom, Macy, Me, and her boyfriend went to my grandparents cabin in Freedom, WY. (did you notice a name is missing from the list? Dallas had to work and wasn't able to get it off, it was SO weird to be away fro him! Although I think he was okay right after we left he stayed at my house to hang out with my dad for a little bit....AWESOME HUH????) Even without Dallas the trip was sooooooooooooo relaxing!! I got to hang out with all of my cousins, aunt, and uncle, and grandparents!! It was soooo much fun, and not to mention like 75 degrees in the middle of the day!
I walked a total of 6 miles with my aunt Jil (she is a marathon runner and she really gave me a workout), rode the four-wheelers, played games, did fireworks, watched fireworks (Freedom festival days), bought lemonade from two adorable kids (with 200 people living in Freedom we felt bad and wanted to support their Entrepreneurship, my cousin Ben said the lemonade tasted like pickles though...haha) It was such a fun weekend, and it took us so long to leave the cabin, although I was ready way before anyone else! I love spending time with my family, and this was a great weekend to catch up with everyone!
