Fourth of July

Well, yesterday was the Fourth of July, and we had an awesome day!
We started the morning off going to a pancake breakfast with the two wards in our East Coast home. Because both wards were there, not a lot of people introduced themselves to us. However, we were able to meet a few people. We met the Bishop. He is a professor at the school Mike is going to. He teaches anatomy and human sexuality. Imagine having to take those classes from your Bishop! They started talking about specific lectures, so I quickly left!
Next I had the opportunity to go to the store with Julie (the wonderful woman who has taken us in) and her 3 children. Boy, that was an adventure! I don't know how she, and all the many mothers out there, does it!
After that, we went to a bbq with most of the student part of the ward. We had a lot of fun meeting new people. Mike was having a blast talking to fellow science nerds about medicine! We even met someone who's father is a Rheumotologist in Utah and know's my father-in-law. Small world!
That evening we went and saw fireworks with the Keith's. It was very entertaining seeing the kids try to wake up, some screaming their heads off! It was way past their bedtimes. When they finally saw the fireworks, they were very happy. Then we went back to their home, and had a fireworks show of our own. Mike and David were so funny to watch as they set up all these fireworks!
Well, I hope everyone else had a wonderful 4th of July!
