Happy "5th" of July


It was another fun time up in Heber at my aunt Carolyn's house for our Independence Day celebration. Since the 4th fell on a Sunday, we decided to have the barbeque on the 5th instead. The boys were totally into the fireworks this year. Carter didn't like the ones that sounded like "screaming eagles." They had a blast with the sparklers or "sprinklers" as Preston calls them.

Tina came all the way from Sweden to be there-she was pretty exhausted after only arriving the night before! Tina, Uncle Richard, Mike, Peter, and Megan

Why are boys such pyros?

We always enjoy spending time with the Tenney side of the family. This year's highlights were scones and clotted cream, Sean McDonald and Aunt Carolyn singing "You raise me up", homemade cherry pie, illegal fireworks, and Greg's midget story being retold for the 100th time and still being funny. I love my family, they are the best.

How have I missed the midget story? I don't think I've ever heard it before. (So somebody has to re-tell it the next time we get together.) Cute pics.
