4th of July




We were able to escape the heat this 4th of July to some place cool, Pinetop. I love the afternoon rain and of course the view. Our cabin is currently under construction so we rented one with my sister and Giselle. Gavin was so excited because every morning he got to play with Elijah. I was so excited because going with my sister and her family means I get to enjoy Wade’s delicious cooking! It was close quarters but, it worked perfectly.


Although it was a vacation for me I don’t know how much of a vacation it was for Troy, Wade, and especially my dad. The worked liked dogs at the cabin, which is turning out beautifully. I can’t wait to enjoy more time up there when it is all completed.


We drove to Hawley Lake enjoyed some family time and some good old fry bread. This is something I look forward too every time we go up there. I am aware that I could make my own or buy some at the many road side stands however, it is NOT the same. The atmosphere is different and I believe it makes the fry bread taste better.




The boys rented a boat and went to fishing, while we had a picnic by the lake. Mother Nature had other plans and it was moved to the back of the car. No fish to cook that night but the experience will last forever.


It was a wonderful trip filled with great lasting memories. Thank you to the cook, the babysitter, the help, the comedians, and the host. In other words, thanks FAMILY!!!
