Monday, July 5 - Since Independence Day was on a Sunday this year we did most of our festivities on Monday. Marla put out her slip n' slide, and kiddie pool; the kids helped Papa make homemade ice cream, we had ribs for dinner, and then finished our day with a fireworks show put on by Paul.

Tuesday, July 6 - My mom bought new chairs at Ikea and Gabby loved the packaging from the chairs. She used 2 cardboard strips as ski's to ski around the house. We stopped her from trying downhill skiing on the stairs, but she had lots of fun cross-house skiing.
Wednesday, July 7 - My friend Nicola invited us to go swimming with them at a pool near their house. It was so much fun seeing them again. After we were done swimming we headed over to Arctic Circle for some treats.
Thursday, July 8 - I took Falkor to see the groomer for the first time. He really needed a good haircut, and he looks much better (and so much smaller without all the fluff).
Friday, July 9 - We went to This is the Place Heritage Park for the free family fun day. The kids did crafts, rode the train, got old-fashion pictures, and played.
Saturday, July 10 - I started out my day bright and early with my little sister Brenda. We went and picked up our Bountiful Baskets from the pick-up location. It's a laundry basket (or 2 of the small round laundry baskets) full of fruits and veggies for $15. It's pretty awesome. After I got back from picking up our basket Paul went to help his brother Chris work on his new house. Then I went to my sis-in-law Jess' baby shower and my little sister Marla took Kaylee and Gabby to the Days of '47 Pioneer Day Horse Parade.
