Missing....

Just wanted to say that I am missing my hubby. I really don't like him to be away that long and when he is, it just makes me realize what a great person I married and how much he means to me. I know that I take him for granted when he is home and I need to be better about not doing that. Because our lives are only getting busier and busier. Shane if you ever read this, just know how much I love you, Always and Forever!!!!!

4th of July weekend

I had Friday off work so it was nice to sleep in. We hung around the house for a little while. Cleaned the house and got the laundry done. We had to drop Shane's work truck off at the office so we decided that we would head down to SLC and check out the zoo. We hadn't been there since last year before Shane left for his military training in Texas. It was a perfect day because it was later in the day when we went so it wasn't so hot and most of the animals were out. Then after we headed up the canyon to Ruth's. It is this diner that we was on the Food Network. Shane and I had tried to go there back in March, but it was closed because they were remodeling. The food was really good. Had that home-cooked meal taste. We will definitely go back there again and try something different.

For the 4th we got up about 9 and went to the Kaysville City Days. We saw the parade and Owen was very excited. The weather held out and it wasn't very hot either. We only stayed for the parade then drove to Centerville to drop Stephen off for a few weeks to see his mom. Don't really know why he wanted to go down there, but he went. Later that night we headed up to my brother's house in North Ogden. We did our own fireworks and then watched North Ogden's from his house. It was nice to spend some time with family.

Owen didn't want his picture taken, but I still thought it was a cute picture

Back yard fun

Owen decided to make a little fun for himself. He got undressed, dragged the sprinkler under the tramp, came back to turn it on and then climbed on the tramped and had fun jumping in the water.
