Summer Reprised

With school looming on the horizon (for Livi, anyway) we're starting to wrap up our summer activities. The family trip to Yuba this weekend will be our last big hurrah, and then it's back to the grind. Looking back over the summer, there are two things that are really memorable: fireworks and water fun.

We live just south of Thanksgiving Pointe, which seems to be Utah Valley's destination for fireworks displays. Whether it's the 4th or 24th of July, company parties, various festivals, or even the county fair, it seems like we get two or three good fireworks shows every month during the summer. Most of the time, we get a great view while just sitting on our front porch. The girls have stayed up later than normal on more than one occasion this summer, "oooohing" and "aaaahing" at the light show overhead.

As for the water fun, we spent plenty of time getting wet this summer. From weekly "swimming night" at the Lehi Legacy Center, to pool parties at Grandmas' houses, ward parties, and just running through sprinklers, there were lots and lots of hot days that just begged for some nice cool water. So, without further rambling, we'll pass you off to the pictures!
