July 4th Weekend




The 4th of July is by far my most favorite Holiday. It is so much fun to be able to spend time with family and enjoy the warm weather. I was lucky enough to only have to work a half day of the 3rd so we went boating and spent the night on the lake. Wakeboard till dark! My parents just bought a Master Craft it is way "SICK" Jake says, it was so much fun. Jake and his best friend Casey went out and both wakeboarded at the same time. I got the coolest video of them make sure to check it out because it is way awesome. Paige was learning how to get up. Jake used to teach lessons so he knows all the tricks and was able to get her up but then she fell right away i think it will take sometime for her to get used to the feel but she set a new goal to learn how to stay up by the end of the summer. My goal is to learn how to clear the wake. I am learning how to get better air and if feel like i am so close i just cant quite make it over i guess i just need to cut harder according to Jake the expert.

On the 4th we went to the Kaysville Parade! It was fun but very long. Both Chelsea and Paige were both in the parade and did awesome. At the end there is the water part of the Parade and we all got soaked it crazy to see all the trucks come out with their hoses and soak everyone. Both my mom and Jakes mom decided they didnt want to participate but the truck forced them to get wet and soaked them in their seats it was so funny because Jakes mom Chris was screaming on the top of her lungs while everyone else was hiding under the tree except for my mom she was laughing so hard she couldnt get out of her seat.

After the Parade we went to the Stadium of Fire, Kylie was lucky enough to be able to dance during the show with many other girls from her dance team. Even though we couldnt see her it was cool just to think she was down there. We had terrible seats and could barely hear anything but we still had a BLAST. The firework show at the end was incredible it was like 45 minutes long and the whole thing was like a finale. It was the best show i have ever seen.
