It's almost the 4th of July and this time of the year always brings the family together. It has been so fun going to the beach and watching my boys get to be boys. They run in the water, find shells, build things in the sand and just have a great time being kids. We just got back from a family vacation with my mom and brother's family. All the cousins were able to play together everyday. We went to Zion, Utah where we hiked through water for a mile and a half, did an hour bike ride from the top of the National Forest and took many rides down the river in innertubes. The beautiful mountains that surrounded us and the millions of stars that we saw at night remind me of how amazing God's creation is. These are memories my family and I will treasure and I look forward to many more. As we get together to spend 4th of July, I am so thankful for this great country we live in, for my wonderful family that I have been blessed with and for God who gives us every good and perfect gift. Enjoy your summer and make sure to make some memories with your families!
