Our trip to 7 Peaks ended up being up in Salt Lake because the Provo one was closed because of a chemical spill. But it ended up being great. We liked it better than Provo.
We had fun all day and went non-stop for hours and hours! Right before decided to go we all went to the lazy river and Ben looked back, right at the wrong time, and hit his head on this island and popped it right open. The lifeguards tried to steri-strip it but we called Mason and Joel took Ben to his office and got him stitched up.
Later that night we 'hung" out at the Dry Creek Trail Park just east of State Street in Lehi. It was such a secluded park. So nice. The boys brought their hammocks and hung out. While the rest of us played card games and roasted marshmallows.
The next morning we got up early and went to see the Provo Freedom Festival Hot Air Balloons. We haven't done this for awhile. We ran the 5K a couple years ago and missed the balloons completely. So it was fun to be right in the middle of them this year.
It was also fun to have Sarah and Andy and their kids with us. They come once a year and this year was super special. We get them now and then they will come to St. George for Josh's Eagle Scout and Sophie's farewell.
That night we went to Steve's for fireworks and fun. Paula played volleyball with the little kids. They had a blast. They pre-adults, Abby, Sophie, Isaac and Abby friends played cards.
The most memorable moment of the night was this picture right here. These three had been talking to Abby about going on a mission and at that very moment she decided that she needed to go. She started her papers later that week! It was so great!
Ben was miserable. He just wanted a pain pill and to go to sleep.
