JuLy

This year in July I turned 21!! How crazy it was knowing that I was offical and no longer a teen. My Birthday morning I hung out and did whatever sounded fun to me, got my nails done, watched movies, and layed out. That night I got ready Griff came picked me up and took me out to Red Lobster for dinner. It was so Delicious! Afterwards we went to my house my Grandparents were there along with Lindsay Zach and Laryssa. We had pie and I got to open my presents from everyone! Wow did I get Spolied!
The 4th of July came and went to fast this year! This is one of my all time favorite Holidays. In the morning we had breakfast with my Grandparents we all had a good time with that. Later in the after noon we headed to the other side of the family had a big lunch played outside and just enjoyed each other. That night we went to Sugar House Park to have a BBQ with the family we did little Fireworks that the uncles had bought then once it got dark the Big Fireworks began so we all sat on the grass with our blankets and popcicles and watched the amazing show!

This past week my family and I headed down to Lake Powell for a few days. We hadn't been there in many years so it was such a fun Trip for us to go back down have a great time. This trip was full of adventures, after filling up with gas we could not get the boat to start... The marina had to get some workers to come take a look at it and come to find out we forgot to turn the kill switch back on. Looks like im not the only blonde in the family haha. Later in the trip we all jumped in the lake to cool off seeing how it was 112* down there. We swam around and had a ball once we got back in the boat my Grandpa realized he swam with his wallet in his pocket... So with it being so hot we took everything out of the wallet and layed it out in the sun to dry, it didn't take long. Later threw the day we would stop to look at canyons or take a dip in the lake, Go back to start the boat to continue on and it would die for a second becuase of the heat... We would have to let it sit and cool off for a bit then start it back up and it would run perfect. On the way home we stopped at Blondie's to get fuel my dad and Grandpa saw the the tire on the trailer had a bubble on it. So my dad said he would watch it out of his mirror as we drove so we could get back on the road. Driving down the highway all the sudden the truck started shaking well come to find out a piece of the tire shredded off and we had to stop on the side of the road to change the tire. Luckly we had a spare for the trailer! But all in all it was such a fun trip and for sure one I will never forget!!
