What an awesome month! We kicked it off with an early 4th of July celebration at some friends that we knew from Rexburg. They now live in Modesto, so we headed up there to swim and BBQ. Lynn worked on the 4th so we didn’t even stay up to see any fireworks. The 5th was my birthday!!! Lynn totally spoiled me. I found a used Kitchen Aid on craigslist for half the price of a new one! I have always really wanted and I LOVE it already. I use all the time, it is so much easier than a hand mixer! We also went out to dinner at Olive Garden!
A couple weeks later was our 5th Anniversary! Holy Cow! Time flys when you are having a good time. We are so amazed looking back on the last five years how good life has been. There have been trials, but we have met all of the goals we set for ourselves when we got married and look forward reaching some new ones now. Lynn was working on our actual anniversary so the weekend before we went over to Monterey to stay for the night. We were planning on spending the day at the beach but it was pretty chilly and overcast so we ended up going to the aquarium. I am so glad we did because Cooper loved it. They had these huge cylinders of Minos swimming in circles and Cooper was so amazed watching them. He also got a big kick out of the penguins. We knew we wouldn’t be able to take a big vacation this year, so we are taking as many small short trips as we can to visit all of the cool stuff around us!
Since Lynn has work training over Cooper’s actual birthday we celebrated a little early. It was a baseball theme with just a few friends at the park. We grilled some hot dogs and let Cooper eat his cake. He had a blast and got a lot of neat presents. The day after we had some 1 year photos taken, I can’t wait to see how they turn out!
