HAPPY 4TH OF JULY EVERYONE! THIS PAST WEEK HAS BEEN COMPLETE CHAOS, BUT SO MUCH FUN. IT STARTED LAST SUNDAY WHEN JOHN, STEPHANIE( JARED'S SIS), AND EVA ARRIVED HERE FROM MAINE FOR THE HOLIDAY. WE HUNG OUT WITH THEM FOR AWHILE BECAUSE THEY WERE GOING TO LEAVE EVA WITH GRUMPY AND GRAMMY AND JUST THE TWO OF THEM GO TO SUN VALLEY FOR A LITTLE GETAWAY...SO THEY LEFT. WE HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY-THEY HAD COME BACK AND NOW, TREG(JARED'S BROTHER) AND ANNIE AND BRIDGET WERE IN TOWN ALSO...PARTY TIME! MY SIS NIKI AND HER FAMILY WOULD BE IN TOWN THE NEXT NIGHT AND WE WOULD HANGOUT WITH MY FAM. THURSDAY NIGHT WE WERE GOING TO HAVE A BERNT FAMILY PHOTO SINCE ALL THE SIBLINGS WERE TOGETHER AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2006, THE PHOTOGRAPHER WAS TO SHOW UP AT 8:15...WE WAITED, WAITED, AND WAITED AND TO OUR SURPRISE, SHE DIDN'T SHOW. WELL, SINCE WE WERE ALL READY, KIM TOOK OUR PIX-AND IF I MIGHT ADD, SHE DID A MARVELOUS JOB. THEN JARED BROUGHT HALLE HOME AND PUT HER TO BED AND I STAYED AT THE BERNTS AND DID FIREWORKS AND S'MORES (THANKS JARED FOR LETTING ME TAKE A LITTLE BREAK, I HAD A GREAT TIME.) ON FRIDAY WE WOKE UP REALLY EARLY AND WE WERE OFF TO SODA FOR PANCAKE BREAKFAST IN THE PARK,THE PARADE, AND FUN IN THE PARK AFTERWARDS. WE ALSO RAN INTO GRANDPA BOB AND GRANDMA BETH, AND UNCLE TODD AND AUNT KIM AND LET THEM PLAY WITH THE KIDS AND TALKED FOR A BIT TO CATCH UP. WE THEN WENT TO THE PARADE AND TREVOR AND HALLE HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME AND WE GOT ALOT OF CANDY AND THE BEST PART, IT WASN'T HOT, IT WAS ACTUALLY OVERCAST AND JUST RIGHT. AFTER THE PARADE, WE WENT TO THE PARK TO MINGLE...WE RAN INTO 4 OF MY GOOD FRIENDS:HAILI, KRYSTAL, WENDY AND TYLER. WE SAT AND TALKED FOR A BIT AND GOT CAUGHT UP ON THINGS...IT WAS SO GREAT TO SEE ALL OF THEM AND SEE THAT THEY ARE DOING WELL. ALSO, SEEING THEIR KIDS WAS AMAZING...THEY ARE SO CUTE AND HAVE WONDERFUL MOMMIES. THEN WE CAME TO POKY AND HAD A PICNIC AT MY PARENTS, THEN WENT UP TO THE BERNTS FOR A SWIM PARTY AND HUNGOUT WITH HIS FAMILY FOR A COUPLE HOURS. THEN ONTO MY PARENTS FOR FIREWORKS AND A BBQ WITH MY STEP FAMILY AND PARENTS. WE HAD A WONDERFUL DAY AND ALTHOUGH IT WAS VERY BUSY WE ARE GLAD WE GOT TO SEE EVERYONE AND SPEND THIS HOLIDAY WITH ALL THOSE WE LOVE...HERE ARE SOME PIX OF OUR 4TH FESTIVITIES!
HERE WE ARE JUST GETTING READY TO EAT AT THE BREAKFAST...NOTHING LIKE PANCAKES, SAUSAGE, AND EGGS-STONE COLD! WE KEEP GOING BACK FOR MORE THOUGH!
HALLE ON TOUCAN-THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITES BACK IN THE DAY!
HALLE AND CUZZY TREVY IN THE SWINGS, THEY WERE LOVING IT!
HALLE ENJOYING THE PARADE!
HALLE AND TREVOR ANTICIPATING THE START OF THE PARADE!
HALLE PLAYING WITH AUNT JEN.
SOMETIMES, I THINK THE ADULTS ENJOY THE PARADE MORE THAN THE KIDS....
WE LOVE THIS PARADE AND ANXIOUSLY WAIT FOR IT EVERY YEAR, SAD HUH?

Tonya I read your blog frequently, you're so good at updating! Thanks for posting all the pictures too, Halle is a DOLL!
Adam's family is from Centerville Utah and we go to their parade every 4th. I totally think that adults enjoy the parade more than the kids, they're so fun!
Looks like you guys had fun as well! We love the celebration up there too. It brings back many memories for me, as well as starts a lot for Addyson. Halle looks adorable and appears to have handled the chaos well! It was good to see you all!
