It all ends. Part 2 is here!

I know I am a complete Harry Potter nerd but I am 100% content with that. SO here is my post about how excited I am to go see the FINAL battle and adventure in this movie series! :)


 And here is the link to get to the trailer to get you as stoked about this as me!
 
Isn't it crazy to think about how long this movie series has been going on...The movie series started in 2001! We have been waiting for this for 10, yes 10 years!! How nutso is that?? If that isn't patience I don't know what is. ALSO if you are smart (I don't mean intelligent smart, I mean if you used your brain and made a good judgment in reading this series) and read the books as well, that means you have been waiting since 1997! That is when the first book came out, your imagination formed this series in your mind for over 14 years and it is ending tonight when it let out into theaters! If you don't sense my excitement then I will video me right before I go see the movie and post that later ;)
 
....I have made it a goal to someday with or without children (who will have to have read and viewed all the movies prior) go to Harry Potter World at Universal Studios and experience that wonderful world of magic :)

.FoUrTh of JuLy. and what not :)

LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN:
Here we are only like 6 weeks away from returning to Utah....I cannot wait :) mostly because I am beyond bored of this place. I love the scenery but I don't get to see much of it since I have been without a car for about a month (Ty takes it for work). Well luckily we have time to do what we want before they go out and sell, so we have gone boating a few times with Spencer and the guys. There is a video of Ty trying these new wake trick skis (or something like that)...I found out I need to only record horizontally on my camera because the vertical footage can't be rotated therefore I can't post it for safety reasons. (I don't want someone trying to view the video and unfortunately falling over...it could happen?) Also there is a video of Spencer trying a trick I told him to try. He was scared to try it and I feel like if you have the skills (which he does) you should attempt the tricks you fear because you probably can do it, you just need motivation...the trick is called an 'Air Raley' or 'Superman'.

boating!! :)
NOW let's talk about 4th of July!
I made cupcakes for a bbq we were gonna have for all the boys (bring your own meat and the lovely wives bring a salad etc.) Well I made salsa but I wanted to be festive so I made cupcakes for everyone. Then we bbq'd and later they all shot off fireworks.
The scariest part was when Ty was setting off these really big fireworks with Spencer, Matt and Jeff. They all were going to set them off at the same time but Ty's lighting device didn't work so he was left there trying to light the firework when the first one went off in his face. I was SUPER worried he would be deaf or like bleeding out his ear with a broken eardrum or something! 
Thank goodness all was fine. He kept on lighting fireworks off.

Silly boys and their love for fire/fireworks :)

this is my silly husband modeling my cupcakes :)

yum!

I LOVE when he has a night off!
