june/july photo round-up

Lake Powell 2009


Rachel turned 18.


Fourth of July annual balloon rising in Provo. 
We were late.  Walking through the parking lot while they are going up.
Sadi was a little unsure about the crowd and the loud, hot balloons.
Happy, and stylin', safely back in the car.
Fireworks at grandma and grandpa's house. 
Watching from a safe distance at the door.
Slowly making her way as far away as possible.
Front row Colin with g-ma and pyro techno g-pa.
I am truly grateful for our freedoms and those who fight for us all to keep them.
We have baby birds living in our garage.  3 of them.  And as you can see, their nest is right above my car.
