Independence Day


Ryan and I spent the 4th in Alamo, NV-population 2,000. Only in a small town can you find: a Brazilian to speak Portuguese with, 2 families from your ward, spend time in a non air conditioned school gym, have people apologize because they don't know you, and have a fireworks display directly above your head after the fireman help the neighbor hose off his house. (Mostly, you just have to be there)

(Since I know you want to know-Rachel slept through fireworks and Adam seemed frightened, but never cried-this was a surprise.)
We had a great Independence Day together, and even though we concluded we can't live in a town without a Wal-Mart-we definitely love visiting one. Thanks Matt and Misty for a great time!

PS-I am still working on the posts I teased you about earlier. Don't worry.

What a fun/funny 4th! Sad this is the last post I get to read of yours today. Hopefully they'll be more fun happenings for you to blog about soon.
