Our Fourth of July this year was a good one. Since it feels like we're always so busy out here and Ben is hardly ever home, we decided to relax and have a good day at home. So we got together with another couple, and had a little party at the pool. We had copycat Cafe Rio sweet pork burritos and house dressing, watermelon, brownies, chips, and soda. The boys swam in the pool and I read my book while Jess tanned. The weather was perfect and it was pure happiness. Then the guys wanted to play video games so we went over to Jess and Dallin's (just down the road from us) and Jess and I played cards while they played video games. Then we realized that it was Tuesday, which is the discount day at the movie theater here, so we decided to go see Wonder Woman! We brought our brownies and stopped at the gas station for some other snacks, and on the way to theater there were fireworks going off all around us. There were even some right across the street from the theater as we were walking in. We got to sit in those nice leather reclining seats, and I had brought a blanket from home because I always freeze in movie theaters, so it really felt like a great home theater (but with a GIANT screen). The movie was great, and after that we went home and went to bed! Then in the morning, Ben told me he didn't have to go in for work until 2:30! So we slept in and had a wonderful morning together as well. (my phone is old and the camera is all but dead so this is the best I've got haha)
