North Shore

At the beginning of summer I bough tickets to go to the aquatic center in North Ogden.  they were on a groupon deal. I told James he had to take the day off and come with me.  Mel, Linds, Mom and Tara all got tickets and we made it a family affair!!

 It was such a fun weekend.  We loved having all our cousins here.  Tara and family will be missed by us all.

Gran Fondo

I rode in my first century ride.  Actually it was 105 miles!  It was so hard.  40 miles of hills, that was a lot. It was a prefect day to ride, overcast with a little bit of rain here and there. 

 The beginning, we are still feeling pretty good!

Clarissa- me - Jamie

We finished!  I am so glad that I did it, but I will never do this ride again.  Thanks to these three people, I never would have made it without them!!

the weekend of the 4th

We started out the weekend with the fireworks on Friday the 3rd.  we find yourself a nice place on the lawn outside the stadium and play until dark.

 Krayton loved the fireworks.  He watched them bright eyed the whole time!

 Everybody enjoying the show

 on the 4th I got up early and went on a 40 mile ride!  it was rainy and cool, perfect weather for a long ride!

James' family all come up and we had a nice BBQ up at Liz and Howards then we all headed to the lake.  the weather wasn't the best, but we made the best of it

 James took his mom on a wave-runner tide

we ended the day with a roast and fireworks of our own.  

it was such a fun filled day!!
