24th of July

I started the 24th off by going to get my friend Denise at the airport. She had been on vacation for a month and the first thing she wanted to do was eat at Cafe Rio. Of course I can't say no to that place. Then she followed me to Brett's parents house to get Avery. She joined us for the rest of the festivities. We started the night off with a BBQ at the park. As we were all enjoying our dinner the sprinklers came on. Everyone was trying to run away, but not Avery she was running through them with Gk. They had a blast!! It was so funny! Avery had so much fun playing with all the kids. Gk and Avery even managed to squeeze in a little smooch!! Such cute kiddos.

After dinner we went over to swim. Once again Avery spent her time in the raft. She loves that thing and could stay in there for hours. Nate was so cute with her she has the greatest uncles and aunts. We only swam for about an hour until it was dark enough to do fireworks.

Thanks to Brandon we had the best fireworks in town. He got them in Idaho and lets just say their not the tiny ones you get here in Utah. They were the big ones that shoot up in the sky and make the big loud sound!! Avery enjoyed most of them, but the big loud ones she would hide herself under her blanket. He did one firework that kept going off forever and that's when people started running!! Everyone was scared that we were going to get caught and get a ticket. So that was the end of the fireworks show. Jenn and Brandon put on a great party and I hope we can do it again next year!!
