Happy 4th of July


4th of July parade with our friends the Gramse's. Doesn't Bella look enthused? She actually really loved the parade and she got to meet some real life firemen and get into a fire truck :)!



Bella with her friends at the splash park.


Rick and Bella tubing in the lake. We had such a good time with the Ence's.

So life has been crazy and great here in the SLC. I love hanging out with old friends and I have loved the weather here during the summer. It definitely beats the Dallas summers! Rick has been keeping busy with his new job and is mastering his dental skills :). I have been busy with work and taking care of Bella. Bella has been enrolled in swimming lessons and gymnastics. She loves swimming and has really taken to the water.

We have had some fun visits from our friends the Dorny's, Jepson's, and the Berry's. It was so great to have our friends from out of state come and see us. Bella loves playing with her "Texas friends".

Not much else is happening, or an other words, we are very boring people :). We hope you all are doing great and we will write more soon.

*I added our family pics that our good friend Whitni Parker did. She did such a great job and I was so impressed with how well Bella did during the shoot.

That Whitni does an amazing job! You guys rocked it! Love them all. How great is it to be all done and have a job?!?! Must seem a little surreal. Congrats on the move and new job - sounds like SL is going to be a great place for your little family!

Those pix are so cute! Did you take those in Dallas? Bella looks adorable and I have to say those smiles are a little better than the ones I got out of her!! We LOVE having you guys here!

Looks like a fun 4th celebration. I am counting down the days to be out there- move over so I can come stay with you while Marsh is fishing. Then we can FINALLY catch up!! And plan all our meeting spots...
