The Fourth of July has always been one of my favorite holidays. As a child I loved going up to Grandpa and Grandma Watt's for a barbecue. It would usually turn into a water fight, and the day would end with watching the fireworks from the front lawn while eating some delicious homemade raspberry ice cream. Now one of our favorite traditions is attending the Provo Freedom Festival Parade. We save seats for family and friends (thanks for doing the saving this year Brenda and girls!!) and bring breakfast foods to share and munchies to enjoy. Making family memories is the best part of celebrating the day!
My life is so blessed and is all about the two most important things in my life...my family and my faith. I have a wonderful husband, Rafael, and four amazing children, Jennifer, Landon, Michelle, and Kyle. They are all grown and gone from home so we are empty nester's and it is good we still love each other so much after 27 years of marriage! Landon is married to a great girl named Haley and they are the parents of the most amazing, brilliant, handsome, perfect little boy on earth...Easton. A baby girl named Averie just joined their little family the end of July and we love spoiling another one! She is beautiful! In other words, being a grandma is my favorite thing to do!! I am blessed to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and am grateful for the faith that sustains me each day. Life is great, and just keeps getting better!!
