For the 24th weekend Adam's family in Fairview always does a bunch of fun stuff. We were finally able to make it this year so I was really happy! I've never been and haven't even met half the family that lives there! We left early on Friday and followed his brother and his family. When we got there we went to a delicious little burger joint and then went over to his cousin's house. We all hung out there and visted for awhile and then went to the rodeo that night. Adam's cousins and their kids, Trish & Tony and Adam & I went to the rodeo that night! Adam and I were a little bit late getting there so we didn't really catch that much of it but it was pretty fun! After the rodeo we went back to Adam's cousins' house and seriously laughed for at least an hour.. Saturday morning we went to the parade. For a small town it was a really cute and good parade! I was impressed and it went for awhile! :) That afternoon we just hung out and had lunch and a bbq with all the family. That night was the demolotion derby! I absolutely had so much fun! I wasn't expecting much going into it, but I seriously had a blast! All the family and cousins and everyone all sits together in the stands and his family even did a little raffle/bet thing, and that made it even more fun! It lasted a few hours and then right after that they had amazing fireworks. I loved how the lights go out and the whole place is pitch black and then the fireworks were awesome! I had so much fun w/Adam that night just hanging out and laughing constantly! Afterwards we again spent a couple of hours just laughing with his cousins, they are such a blast! Sunday morning we just relaxed and ended up meeting my parents in Provo so we could get Montana (they had been watching her). We then headed up to Bountiful to hang out w/his parents for a few days. I ended up not going back to work till Wednesday so it was a lot of fun to just relax and hang out w/them! I haven't been up there for  a year and half so it was needed! We went to the big SLC parade on Monday morning. I have never been so I was so excited to go! Adam's parents came with us and they had a blast. His mom loves parades! I didn't realize how long the parade goes for.. it was literally almost  2 1/2 hours! But the coolest part was definitley seeing the prophet, i had no idea he came through! That night we went and saw the movie 17 Miracles! Best movie ever. If you haven't seen it I highly recommend seeing it. Everyone in our family was crying, it was such a good story! Adam and my brother in law then lit fireworks off that night, they were pretty awesome! Tony ended up climbing a fence to potentially contain a small fire (he ended up hurting himself and the fire burned out within 2 seconds) it was hiliarious. I had such a fun weekend I didn't want to come home! I'm so happy I got to spend time w/Adam's family! :)

This last weekend we went down to Vegas for a softball tournament. We ended up staying down there because the tournament was  a really late one. We had fun though hanging out w/everyone even though it was scorching hot! This next weekend I am going down to Vegas again w/my family for a few days.. i can't wait!

sorry for the overload! I need to catch up more often :)
