Happy Fourth of July!

I hope everyone had a wonderful time for the Fourth of July and you were able to have some quality family time. We had a nice time. We attended the city fireworks at a park with many other Salt Lakers. Still very hot here. It was over 100 for the fourth and even after night fell and we were in the car on our way back my car gage said it was still 88 degrees.

Before going to the park we stopped at the store and got some refreshments to bring. Jeffrey was given a ballon and was more than thrilled. This could have been the highlight of the evening.

Jeffrey loved being with all the people.


With Mom waiting for the fireworks to start.

We snagged him a glow stick from a vendor. The fun keeps coming! :)

Still waiting. There was an hour before the fireworks would start.

The Fireworks are Here!!

For most of the fireworks he was very fixated. A few bored times, but mostly watching intently.




Hike to Tempanogos Cave

Temanogos caves are south of SLC about 45 minutes. You buy a ticket at the station and then hike 1.5 miles and up 1100 feet to the entrance of the cave. No packs allowed in the caves, it was pretty dicy getting around so we c arried Jeffrey around for part of the time. I didn't get any pictures inside the cave and the tour, but got some shots on our way up and down. It probably got into the mid nineties this day and Jeffrey was a trooper. We brought lots of water and took our time.
Dad had the load on the way up.

Us after the cave tour. It was 42 degree inside the cave and you actually needed a light jacket.

More hiking pics

Along with the warmer climate this is something that goes along with it. EEEEW!

The trail was crazy. Nice and paved, but a sheer drop off the other side. If it was Washington there would be railing the whole way.


He got sleepy on the way down. Places he can sleep amaze me.

Few More Pics of House

Here are a few more pictures of the house that we don't have yet. Our home in Issaquah continues to delay furthering delaying our move-in date here in Salt Lake. Move in day is supposedly July 18 at this time. :)

One of the reasons we love this house is the good size basement family room. We were looking at TVs at Costco today! :)
