4th of July


This 4th of July was a small one this year because we couldn't spend it with any of the families this year. We still had a ton of fun celebrating with just our little family and our ward. It was a block party with a few families from the ward. They all lived in the clinic housing (I'm not sure if that's the real name.....they are all medical people) so all of the members that were there were all next door neighbors. Daley really enjoyed hangin out with her nursery friends out in the street.
It is a small world in Kayenta! There is a couple in the ward that got back from a mission and decided they werent ready to retire when they got home but they didn't want to deal with the hustle and bustle of a private practice like what they did before their mission. So they asked where it the hardest to keep dentists and it ended up being Kayenta! So it has been fun having them in the ward! Their youngest daughter and her husband came to celebrate the 4th with them and Denver and I had fun getting to know them. The husband is a grandson of a couple Denver use to home teach when he was young in Eagar. We really enjoyed making friends with them and hope they come back to Kayenta to visit!
We had a pot luck at the block party and later we met up with everyone at the airport to watch the fireworks. The fireworks were great! I didn't think any firework show could get as good as Eagar's, but Kayenta's was pretty good! Kayenta's show has 5 Grand Finales!!! haha That's a joke.....There would just be long pauses in between some of the fireworks and we thought it was a grand finale. You just had to be there.....
Daley has this new obsession with rocks....at the block party, Daley was busy running around looking for the biggest rock to either carry around or suck on. This is her and Max....Max was
deciding on whether or not sucking on rocks was as fun as Daley thought it was.
