July 4th







We had so much fun today. It started with the Freedom Festival parade in Provo and ended at Stadium of Fire. Mya and Charlotte wore matching red, white, & blue dresses. The parade was fun and Stadium of Fire was moving. Glen Beck gave a great speech and welcomed families of soldiers that were serving in the middle east to join the field. Hundreds of family members covered the field. My sister and I were both crying our eyes out, we hoped that our little brother Michael was watching, as Stadium of Fire was being broadcast to the troops.

I didn't know you had a soldier brother. That sure makes things different for you when they honor those who serve. We are always praying for those who are in harms way. When is he due to come back?

He is due to come back in December. He told my Mom last week that they may be home as early as November. He is serving his second tour of duty in Iraq and is a Captain with the Army's 10th Mountain Division from Fort Drum New York.
