4th of July Shenanigans

This last weekend for the 4th of July we headed down to Logan to camp in Scott's parents backyard. We had quite an enjoyable time! Jonas' cousins were out of town so we didn't get to see them until two hours before we left for home, so that was kind of a bummer. Yet Jonas had quite a fun time being able to spend time with his grandparents, Rachel and Michael.

This is a picture of Jonas and his Papa Bradley enjoying the fireworksOn Saturday morning Rachel, Tammy and I took Jonas for a hike across the foothills and ended up at first damn. It was few miles long which wasn't bad, The hard part was getting Jonas' stroller up and down the very steep hills. It would take two people to push him up and two to keep him from flying down the hills. The funny part is, is that Jonas would just sit in his stroller and laugh at us while he sat there enjoying himself.

On Saturday evening we all headed downtown Logan to enjoy the Cruise In'. I think that this was one of Jonas' highlights of the weekend. Jonas is literally obsessed with cars, so he was quite entertained watching all the "cool" cars drive down the street!
On Sunday after church Scott, Jonas Michael and I headed down to first damn again to feed all the ducks. Jonas really like Michael a lot! He really enjoyed getting to know him and now talks about him ALLLLL the time!

We had a really good time and as always hated to have to go home. We have always loved Logan, it is where Scott and I met and to us it has always felt like home to us. We have been wanting to move back so Jonas could be closer to his cousins yet the opportunity has never presented itself. So on Monday on the way out of town we stopped by a dental lab in Logan. Scott was quited impressed with the Lab and the owner was quite impressed with Scott. So now they are in the talks of getting us down there. So we will see what the next few days and weeks bring, maybe we will be back in Logan sooner than we thought!

Below are a few more picture from the weekend!

Looks like you guys had a fun time in Logan! We have always loved Logan and we hate to leave too. I do my picture collages on Photoshop. I am just learning so they aren't great. Let us know if you guys will be moving to Logan. Justin has been looking for a new job too!

Oh and about the scentsy stuff, my favorite right now is the perfectly pomegranate! But there are so many that i like - Fried Ice Cream, Watermelon Patch, Cranberry Bread, the list could go on! You can go to my website www.scentsy.com/jessicalynne and look through the catalog. Let me know if you want to know what any of them smell like!

Jonas is quite the looker. You guys are going to have keep the girls away when he's older, or at least teach him how to choose wisely. He is lucky to have such great parents, especially such a great mom! Crystal you're such a good mom.
