4th Of July







Every year for the 4th we go up to the cabin in Greer as a family! It is one of our favorite family vacations that we take yearly. It is always so nice to get away from this hot weather and relax in the cool mountains! On Friday we headed up to Show Low to watch the parade with my family, growing up we were always in Show Low on the 4th and always watched the parade. After the parade we headed back up to Greer, about an hour drive, and had a bbq with Marks family and then watched fire works. Saturday we helped rake up pine needles for Marks grandpa and his cabin. Kylee had a lot of fun trying to help Grandma Sherree rake her needles! Kevin went fishing that morning REALLY early with Jolean, they brought back 3 fish! Kylee had never seen fish like that before so it was fun for her to look at them and try to figure out what they were doing:) Sunday we headed up to Snowflake to look at the Temple and them we headed home! It was such a wonderful weekend, we always have fun in Greer and with the Svancara's!

Dara told me you guys had gone to Show Low. She has told me about that place and how much she loves it up there. I was just scrolling through your blog since I haven't visited in a while and I saw the pictures of your haircut. Oh, my gosh! I have always loved your long hair, but you look GREAT with shorter hair, too.

You are just simply stunning.
