July so far...

The 4th of July was so fun! We went to a pancake breakfast the YM/YW were putting on at the church then walked over and watched the Forth of July parade. It was fun! During Christian's nap Alan and I watched "Spiderwick Chronicles". It was fun to cuddle and relax together...I hardly see him these days! Then at 5 p.m. we had a BB-Que with some friends and lit off some fireworks until 7:30 p.m. when we had to head over to the BYU football stadium. Alan bought Stadium of Fire tickets. It was fun! Blue Man Group was very entertaining and I actually tapped my foot to some of Miley Syrus' music. The fireworks show was long and fun. We couldn't find anyone to watch Christian so we had to take him. He fell asleep after the first 45 minutes or so...Poor little guy. I had to cover his ears b/c it was SO loud (pic included)! We thought we were being smart by fighting traffic and riding our bikes. Well, when it was done I got to my bike the front tire was flat! So we had to walk and still made it in half the time it took those who drove. :D heheheeee...

My birthday was on the 7th. So now I'm 30 and it is odd that for the next nine years when someone asks my age I'll have to start with "thirty" instead of "twenty". Alan worked all day so it was pretty uneventful. A couple friends came over in the evening and brought me a cake and balloons and flowers. (Video attached of Christian playing with the balloons.) I almost cried b/c it meant a lot to me. Especially since Alan didn't do anything. He's such a male sometimes. :)~ He's still trying to find my birthday present: Mario Cart for the Wii.

My family has a reunion next week, Mon-Fri. I am so excited! I'm going Tues-Fri and am crossing my fingers that Alan will be able to make it for 2 nights. It depends on if he gets work off at his night job. He's trying really hard so hopefully he can come.
