July 4th Extravaganza

Park City knows how to party on the 4th of July! In fact, we truly don't have to purchase ANY fireworks as we can watch them go off all around us.

We had family and friends over on the 4th...my sister Rhonda, my sister Marilyn, my brother Mike and his wife Diana, her sister Laurie and Laurie's son Tyler (who loves the 4th in Park City!), my BFF Melody, her daughter Diane and Diane's boyfriend Collin, our neighbors Paul & Tokeah, their kids Jansen and Alex, and our neighbors Tom and Tiffany. Found out that Tiffany is expecting twins in late December/early January. So happy for them. My brother Terry and nephew Nick stopped by for a while. We celebrated Corby's birthday, which was June 22, had fried chicken from Dillons, potato salad, macaroni salad, and tons of other goodies. The kids had a great time shooting off fireworks.




Fortunately, I took a few days off from work and don't go back until July 10th. Much needed after our late night on the 4th.

Brandon, Kaleb and I went to see The Amazing Spiderman in 3D IMAX yesterday afternoon. I LOVED IT! Not too keen on the 3D glasses, but I thoroughly enjoyed the movie.



Kaleb had to head home last night as he had to work this morning. We will go see him in Manhattan in a few weeks.

Today, I met my good friends Joyce and Michelle (from high school) at McAllister's Deli for lunch. Michelle lives in Omaha so we don't get to see her very often. We had a great visit.

Tomorrow, my BFF Melody and I are going to get pedicures and manicures. Will be nice to spend one on one time with her!

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
