Happy 4th of July!

(This is the best family that we could get that night.)

What a greg 4th of July that we had! We started our day off by sleeping in until 8:30 or so, which was great! Then we headed down to Utah Lake to do some boating and sun bathing! We put the boat in at American Fork, which we decided was the way to go, we were on the lake by around 11:30. It was a nice day, a little cloudy, much more then I would have liked, but nice for a change. The lake was pretty busy of course, plenty of boats out on it, but nice. The kids had fun riding on the tube, and then they wanted to be pulled behind the boat with just the rope, they thought that was pretty fun to. The water was a little to choppy for skiing, Greg tried it, but the wake boarding was good. The guys(the water is still a little to cold for me) are getting pretty good on the wakeboard, making some really big jumps and of course some good wipe outs. After putting the boat away at Mike and Sarah's and getting ready for the night, we went down to Thanksgiving Point, electric park, to have a picnic, hang out and watch fireworks with all the Robinson (and Hatfield) Clan. The kids all had fun playing with there cousins and we even got a few fun photos. The fireworks were great! Halley started out crying because she still doesn't like the big loud booms, that the fire works always start with, then watched the fireworks for maybe 5 minutes and she fell asleep, and was out the rest of the night. Cole loved watching fireworks on Eric's lap and eating kettle corn. Paige couldn't decide who she wanted to lay with, mom or dad, so she was her normal bundle of energy and sleep was no where to be found until we got in the car to go home and with in 2 minutes she was out. All the kids were asleep by the time we got home and the next morning we all slept in until 9:15am which was much needed sleep after two nights of fireworks and not going to be before 11:30. Gotta love the holidays!
