STADIUM of FIRE

On the fourth of July I got to take some pictures of my cousin Tanner's new little baby! He was having a rough time getting to go home from the hospital, and we were worried I would be home before he got to come home. Luckily he got to come home the day before I left so we did the shoot an hour after he got home.

The Jonas Brothers- Not gonna lie, they know how to put on a concert. They are really good. I definitely couldn't hear after it since I had a group of teenage girls behind me. They did know every word to every song. Pretty good!

They did a ceremony to retire the HUGE flag in the pic above. It was really neat.

Park City

After the balloon fest we all took naps then off to Park City to ride the Alpine Slide and roller coaster! I haven't done this since I was really young so it was lots of fun to go back.
Here's Peyton on the way there

We don't know what these things were, but they were not small and they would sit on the slide and didn't even care when you got close to them. My second time down I had to stop on the slide because one wouldn't move. Gross!

Chase and me on the roller coaster. This thing is WAY more fun than the slide! You can go faster and you are attached to the actual tracks so you aren't going to flip off. This was a blast!

Thanks for the fun Dad!!!

Balloon Fest

Friday morning we got up really early and headed to Provo for Balloon Fest! I've seen my sister's pictures every year, but have never gotten to go. It was a blast. My Uncle is celebrating 30 years of his printing business. His balloon goes up every year at balloon fest. Pretty neat to see all the different balloons they have going up. We met up with the Alexander side of the family and had a fun morning in the balloon then we went out to breakfast.

After they did the ride at the balloon fest we broke off and did family rides. You land where you can! First ride: some neighborhood street

Then it was my turn. I went with Al's wife Sarah. We definitely had the prettiest ride. Over a gorgeous golf course, a creek, and into some trees. It was lots of fun. Thanks Uncle Jeff!

Down in another neighborhood then Uncle Jeff and Diana went up for the last ride!

On the last ride you need a very open space to pack up the balloon. What better than someone's large front yard?
