Awababadoba-awambamboo!

Ok, so the ice cream cake was made for a ward party, but

the party was on my birthday, so we counted it as

a birthday cake.
And guess what, one of those balloons is still floating!

Then we bought these cupcakes at that same party

and that became my birthday cake!

Picture of me with my new car!
I named her Belle!
As in a pretty bluebelle flower!

Ok, to recent things. On saturday July 3rd,
we had a staycation and went to the
Great Salt Lake!
I have never been, and we went to antelope island to
get there! It was cool, i shouldn't have waited
22 years to see something so crazy cool!

On sunday ,the 4th we went to the annual

neighbordhood block party.

Everyone brings food and their fireworks,

and it really is a party.

We had about 7 fountains going at a time....

It was Awesome.

I love fireworks!

Maci Jo being adorable!

On Monday, July 5th we went to Provo

for the Freedom Festival Parade!

My school had a float, so i was stoked!

Go Wolverines!

We are very patriotic!

After the parade, my mom and I

drove up the Santaquin canyon for lunch

with cousins and other family members!

It was a great weekend!

I loved the fireworks.

I loved being with family and friends.

I loved being able to celebrate my freedom.

In other news.....

I lost my camera a couple weeks ago after

boating....and i'm getting worried!

So, if ya'll want to join me in

praying it back, that would be cool.

Also, the annual Water Wars

event has begun at my work!

Basically...everyone is split between 2 teams!

Then, for a week we have a battle!

We make pyramids of the teams and you have to "kill"

people in that order. This year we are playing

where seniority gets higer up on the pyramid.

I'm about 3rd from the top...there are about 3 or 4

lines of ppl under me.

Anyway, so we all go out "killing" with

our squirt guns. And everyone lives in

complete paranoia for a week.

It's a lot of fun!

Every person has a point value and at the end

of the week, whichever team has the most

points, wins. So, you don't want to die, and you want to kill alot!
