July 4th!

Happy 4th! For the holiday Jenn (my roommate and close friend) let me tag a long for all of her fun family activities and it was a blast! The first activity on the list was a pancake breakfast followed by a shaving cream fight with her ward. Apparently this is a tradition. Everyone brings there own shaving cream and goes at it and then the Fire truck comes and hoses everyone off! It was seriously so much fun and I recommend it to all!






I personally think that I look like Matt in this picture...or just like a boy in general... haha


This is with Jenn, her sister, uncle and cousins, they were all so much fun!Here comes the fun part! The firemen go up really high on their ladder and spray 2 hoses down on the crowd like it's raining. The hose was pretty powerful and knocked some down but for the most part it was just really cold!

After that we had a BBQ at Jenn's parents, friends and family came and then we launched water balloons at Jenn's aunt and uncle. It was a blast!
Don't worry I didn't forget about the stadium of fire, I just haven't uploaded those one's yet. Over all this was one of the best if not the best 4th I have ever had! It was so action pact! I'm so grateful for my friends and their families that are so welcoming to me and serve me constantly, without them, I would probably be homesick more often. I love them and am so grateful for their kindness!
