4th of July weekend


So for the 4th of July this year we went down to Tucson to celebrate with Jeremy, Nic, Michael & Sofia. We actually went down on Thursday to spend a couple days with them, since Jeremy had a week off we decided to take advantage of his break. Aaron is always asking to go play with Michael so it's always fun when they can get together. We spent the weekend in the pool, playing Rock Band, eating some GREAT steaks (thanks to Jeremy) and having fun just hanging out. So on the 4th we went and picked up some KFC and drove to "A" mountain where the fireworks would be. It took us a while to find a good place to stop but Jeremy found us a great spot with hardly anyone around, so we got out some blankets and chairs and waited for them to begin. The fireworks were awesome. Some of them were going off almost directly over us. Aaron was having fun telling us the colors of the fireworks and Josh took some great shots. To top it all off, Aranic and I had this fun craft idea we wanted to do, so at the end of the night while everyone went to bed, except for Sofia who decided she was wide awake (she is so adorable), we stayed up until 3:30 making it. It took longer than expected, but turned out WAY WAY cuter than I had imagined it would. We had spent the previous couple of days picking out the perfect colors/paper/ribbon/paint and brainstorming to figure out how it would all work. Even though we hadn't planned on staying up so late it was so worth it. Who needs sleep right? Anyways, thanks to Jeremy & Aranic for an awesome weekend!
