What we've been up to in July....

Where do I start it's been so long since I have posted anything. Life has been crazy with work, school and lots of vacations. I'll start with the 4th of July. The day before the 4th we went down to Provo with Tyler and Jaimee so go to Seven Peaks waterpark! It was a lot of fun and we we're glad we could get together with them for the day. All four of us came close to dying that day though, when we all went down a very tall slide and got some air, and started to free fall. Needless to say i'll never be going down a slide like that ever again. Later that night we met up with some family on my dad's side for some dinner, pole vaulting lessons, and picking delicious cherries. Then later that night we drove back to Logan for fireworks because for some reason Logan doesn't celebrate the 4th of July on the 4th they celebrate on the 3rd. It was fun though, Ryan and I went out in our "backyard" laid a blanket out and watched the fireworks. A little burnt from the waterpark in the picture below...

It was weird getting used to a different cities 4th of July celebrations. On the 4th they do a thing called The Cruise In. Which is a bunch of old cars that people have fixed up and they drive them up and down main street.

Back the Future car... they even had crazy gray wigs.

Next in July... We went to Colorado to visit Ryan's family and for Ryan to try out for American Idol in Denver! Although it was a long day, I'm so proud of him for trying out he really is a talented singer. Here's how our day went, we woke up at 2:45 am to drive to Denver and we got there at 4:30 am to line up. They didn't let us into the Invesco stadium until 8:00 am and Ryan didn't end up trying out until 4:30 pm. It was a long day of sitting in the heat along with a bunch of strangers. But, it's cool to say been there done that.

Waiting in the heat for 10 seconds of fame.
Ryan waiting in line to tryout... He's in the middle in a black shirt behind the girl in the pink.And Ryan about to tryout... I was sick to my stomach nervous for him at this point.

The next day after tryouts, Eric, Hannah and Us went to Water world for the day. Another water park and another full day of fun!

This past Wednesday I finished up my 2nd try at my Anatomy class, and happy to say that I got an A-! I'm very happy to be done finally with that class, and I can now say i'm an Anatomy pro.

This Tuesday we leave for TEXAS! We're excited for a hot week while at the pool, river and lake! Pictures will be up soon from that week!
