up-to-date

Yes. I know. I have been a bit neglectful of this blog. For you own reading pleasure (and my own documenting purposes), I have a few things to catch up on. Here we go.

1. Fireworks - Jason's family sells fireworks over the forth of July. It is lots of hard work, and the whole family helps out. This year, Jason spent a week in Burley selling the huge fireworks -the ones that are illegal in Utah. On the weekends, I went up to Idaho to help with the selling (even though I didn't know what I was doing most of the time) and Jason and I had a good time. Here are a few pictures documenting the happenings of the week. I must say, I am very VERY happy to have Jason home. It was a rough week without him.

2. Weather - So it's hot. We have no air conditioning. Let's just say that it is a bit unpleasant. We try to go for drives in the evening because at least our cars have air conditioning. Jason and I are now sleeping downstairs on our floor because it is mildly cooler. And I never thought I would say it, but I'm looking forward to cooler weather.

3. The Garden - We are finally enjoying the produce of our garden! I am thoroughly enjoying our lettus (which might come as a surprise to many). Yesterday, Jason and I picked some zucchini and beans. We will be eating those today. Yum!

4. Camping -Jason and I have been wanting to go camping for a while now. This past weekend, we finally got around to pitching a tent. We invited our neices and nephews to go up to High Creek and sleep over. My family ended up coming to have a cookout with us that night. We spent the evening walking all along the creek, attempting to fish in the water, telling stories, and just having a good time. We didn't get to bed until late into the night, but we hope that everyone had a good time. We sure did.

That's all.
