4th of July

For the 4th of July we headed to SLC for a long weekend. We had a great time, and it was really nice visiting our families. Since the majority of people who read this also spent the weekend with us we decided that we would just post some pictures. Enjoy!


(The Cabin)

On the first day we headed up to Madelyn's family cabin to escape the Salt Lake heat. When Madelyn and I booked the flight to SLC a couple of months ago we thought "It will be nice to get a break from the Texas heat". It ended up being completely opposite. We left Austin with 78 degree temps...(because of the endless rain Austin has been getting!)

More Pictures from the Cabin:






Of course when we were in Salt Lake we had to head to Cafe Rio for lunch with friends. We had a great time, and it was excellent food.


(Not pictured: Mr. Eric Vogeler, Mr. Jeris Hobbs, and of course the photographer: me!)

We had such a great time at lunch we decided to get together for some games.



We had a great time hanging out at my parents house. Jackson and I went and saw Transformers..... and Madelyn got more familiar with my sister's dog, Gus.



Instead of renting a car we just borrowed my Dad's scooter for the week. At first I borrowed it just to go back and forth between our families houses. Somehow over 50 miles showed up on the odometer...... I don't know how that happened.



The main excitement over the weekend was spending time with baby Elly. This was taken about 2 hours before our plane left. It had nearly taken the whole week for Elly to allow me to get this close!
