Happy 4th of July!

Dear Scott,
I hope you have had a fantastic week!  You will have to tell us what you did for the 4th of July...God Bless America!!! :)

I will try and fill you in...
We all got together and had a very american hot dog dinner on Friday night.  Everyone swam for a while, ate, visited, watched the grandkids swim and have fun.  It is kind of goofy though because we don't have any glass on the table outside! :)   After that, we packed up carmel corn, and drinks, snacks and went over to Andy Brown to watch fireworks.  The fireworks were so good!  A great night, except that we were melting in the heat!  104* that day!
Saturday Dad and Mark chain sawed  down the big tree in the front yard.  So sad!!!  It looks really strange, and we have no shade to keep the house cool.  It is down to a stump now.  We will have to get that removed, and plant a new tree.  It was so hot outside!  That night we took the boat out to Lewisville Lake and watched the fireworks.  It was not that great at all!  Lots of boats, drunks, bad rap music, and choppy water!  I don't think I want to do that again on the 4th of July, but it was OK.

Well, today Dad and I leave for Europe.  We will be gone until the 17th.  We will be going all over the place, but will still get e-mails.
I mailed your meds up, so watch for them.  How are the knees?  We couldn't believe you were getting a car!!!!  Is that just because of your knees?
Wow!
We love getting your letters, it sounds like you are so busy.  I bet you are doing really well with the teaching, and helping people in SLC.  Do you know if you get to go to the new temple open house yet?
Love you lots, you are doing an important work, we are proud of you!!!!
I will try and attach a couple of pictures from 4th of July for you!  PS...I had fun in Utah for Grandpas 78th birthday.  It was weird being up there and knowing you were in SLC!  I was a good girl, and did not go to SLC!!!  Tempting though! :)
Love, Mom
