Fourth of July and Getting Ready For the Reunion

Wow!!! Its been a busy weekend. We decorated the back yard for the reunion and the 3rd. We went to the Layton City Parade. We had a multi-family thing going on at the parade. My Mom was there. Eric's Parents and Brother and his wife and her parents were also there. If thats not confusing I don't know what is. It was a typical parade except there was some cloud cover and a little bit of a breeze that cooled things off. We went over to Eric's parents for a barbeque dinner and then over to Mom's to watch the fireworks. When we first got to Mom's Kurt, Kristin, Kaitlyn, Catherine, Scott, Jayla, Tanner and Grandma and Grandpa Clark were there. We watched a few of the fireworks that Mom's neighbor Ryan bought for $150 at Sams Club. Mom's neighborhood all went in on them and so did Eric and I. Catherine and Scott and Jayla and Tanner stayed to watch Layton City's fire works while everyone else went home. It was okay for a fireworks show. We set off more of Ryan's fireworks and then headed home for some sleep before the big day.......The Reunion. This is Eric's first time on our roof.
He is putting up a beautiful Fourth of July thing.

We sure had fun while it lasted! Now you can just enjoy your backyard without all the hubbub. Thanks for letting everyone use your shade!

Love,

You had the renunion in your backyard? I didn't know. I love your backyard with all the shade and the concrete porch. We don't go on our back deck to much because the sun is always hitting it so it is always really hot. Our front porch is nice though. It sounds like you had a busy but fun weekend. I wish I could have been there.

love
