We are so glad we got to go to Ohio for the 4th of July. Tyler had a break from school, so we headed up. Tyler's sister Emily was there, back from BYU for the summer, and his brother, Kyle and his wife Jessy were there too. We were just missing Kjerstin, Steve and Whitney and it would have been a full blown family reunion. We had lots of fun. It addition to the things in the pictures we also had fun swimming, eating yummy food, playing on inflatable toys, enjoying BEAUTIFUL weather (in the 70's the whole time) and staying up really late talking. But here is a look at our fun, fun fun, time in Ohio!
Getting ready for a paddle boat ride.
Racing Kyle, Jessy, and Emily.
We had lot of fun on the boats. It was so pretty and the weather was so nice.
Friday night we went to an Indians game with Tyler's brother Kyle and his wife Jessy and Tyler's Dad. It was a really fun game. The Indians scored 15 runs. That is the highest scoring baseball game I have been to.
After the game they had really cool fireworks, which they did to Michael Jackson music while showing some of his music videos on the big screen. It was hard to choose which one to watch, the music or the fireworks, both were really cool.
In the very early morning of the Fourth we went to the Ashland Balloon Festival. We had been to the one in Provo, that we liked so we thought we would try this one out. At first I was disappointed, because they don't fill up the balloons there, like they do in Provo. But it ended up being even better. We were watching the competition where they drop something onto a target. The balloons were getting very close to the ground. It was really cool to see. They did fill up one balloon for a demo, the boys thought it was really cool.
Luke was telling the balloons where they needed to go to get closest to the target. It was really cute.
I had fun taking cool pictures. I couldn't decide which one I liked best, but these are my favorites.
They sure love their Grandma! Waiting for it to get dark enough for fireworks!
Spelling his name.
Isaac really liked the sparklers.
Everyone (minus Tyler-the fireworks guy, and me-the photographer) enjoying a perfect night for fireworks.
We had a great time and are looking forward to a real family reunion with the whole family next summer!
