Yesterday I left my house and it wasn't to go to a doctor's appt! I felt like such a criminal :) Our whole family went over to Jeff's Aunt Janae's & Uncle Keith's house. It was quite the Independence Day party! Of course I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures but Janae probably took 100 or so (I'm not kidding). I'll just have to steal some off her blog when she post's them :)
Most memorable things that happened:
- Uncle Wade teased Eden and made her cry... then he tried to make me cry... but when he talks all I hear is "blah blah blah blah me me me" :P
- When I told Aunt Caroline I'm turning 28 in August she cracked up laughing because she though I was lying! Apparently I look much older, ha ha.
- The food was great. Soooo many deserts to choose from. A couple different people were thoughtful enough to get me anything I wanted so I didn't have to get up. It was very heart-warming.
- The teenagers in charge of lighting the fireworks almost scorched half-a-dozen cars when the initial comet from the illegal arial went blazing down the street instead of up. **I then had flashbacks to a few years ago when Uncle Keith stuck an illegal bottle rocket into the grass to light it. Only to have it not shoot up into the air for us to "ohhh" and "ahhh" over, but explode right there on the lawn and send the ENTIRE family running for their lives!
Good times.

Your post just reminded me of all the reasons I love 4th of July with our family. hahaha.
It was so great to see you!
and by the way. Only 184. The other 12 were of the birds nest. When I have family this good looking how can I resist taking a few photos :)
As memoriy recalls, I'm pretty sure there were times Uncle Wade tried to make me cry too. What's up with that? I'm not even a Leavitt!
Sounds like a pretty great 4th of July! Glad you snuck out to enjoy it.
