Double Trouble in the 8♥1: JULY 2016

-- JULY 2016 --

To sum up July: "work, work, work, work, work, work" - rihanna

I guessss I did have some fun too ;)

On the first of July I went tubing down the Provo River and it was FREEZING!!! Bonus points if you can find me ^^

The first weekend of July kept getting better ... on Sunday night Kori, Kels, and I went on a picnic. We were sitting close to a family and a few little boys started running around throwing sticks at us. They would look us straight in the eye and throw a stick at us with no fear. It was almost traumatizing.

Sunday night we had a sleepover with Kori! She stayed in one of our "guest bedrooms" haha. We woke up at 630 AM on Monday the 4th and walked down the street to watch the hot air balloons. After waiting around for awhile they made an announcement saying they had to postpone the balloons due to the weather :(( we decided not to stay and went home and made breakfast! We made coconut pancakes with fruit.

A couple hours later we left to go on a hike to Battle Creek Falls.

Hehehe we went off-roading. We somehow lost the trail and ended up hiking through the stream and trees and other scary places.

It was a beautiful, nice day to be hiking!

At some point we made it to the top! It was really scary sitting on this ledge hah.

There was a flag hanging up at the beginning of the hike and it was oh so cool, especially since it was Independence Day!

hiking crew :D ^^

After hiking we had a BBQ. We even made festive drinks! ^^

We also made BBQ chicken, loaded potato salad, and corn.

Kels made flag brownies!!! ^^

Always sooo much fun with these 3! At 5 PM Kels had to go to work so we decided to relax and watch TV until the fireworks. At 630 PM Kels asked us to pick her up already haha I guess it was that slow. After we picked her up we got ice cream and then went back home.

Later that night we went to Lehi to watch the fireworks and it was AMAZING. It was so long too we didn't think it was ever going to end. Right before the finale a fire broke out but that didn't stop anything haha.

It was Natalie's birthday a few days later and we went laser tagging and ate homemade gluten-free ice cream cake!

Drive-in movies :D ^^

We saw The Secret Life of Pets and Independence Day and ate snacks.

We also saw some drunk people.

One night we went to JCW's and got oreo shakes! Obsessed.

Someone turned twenty-one!!!

Best mocktail party ^^

This salad from work was too good not to capture.

Summer is always 10x better with a pool + twin!

maybe we got shakes twice this month .....

Obligatory haircut selfie ^^

Obligatory watermelon selfie hehe ^^

last Alpine Village breakfast :( ^^

Sooo we were told we had to move down the hall due to remodeling which meant saying bye to my bedroom of two years. tears. Moving was not ideal but at least we got to practice before the big move.
