fun with j + k

we've been having a lot fun with our friends krystal and jesse this summer. krystal is my friend from hygiene school and she and her boyfriend jesse are a ton of fun to hang out with! so far we've done a campfire with hotdogs and marshmallows, had a lasagna dinner and played games, went mini-golfing and got frozen yogurt, and this past weekend we celebrated pioneer day together!

on friday the four of us went to the days of '47 rodeo up in salt lake. me and krystal both hated the events with the baby cows. they were so cruel! the cowboys would lasso the baby cows and and then snap the rope around their neck so they hit the ground, then they would jump off their horses run over to the cow, body slam it, and then tie up all their legs. one of the poor calfs had like mini seizure and couldn't get up again. so sad:(
but the bronco riding and bull riding was fun to watch. and at the end they had the motorcross guys come and do some pretty cool jumps and tricks.

then on saturday night we headed over to mapleton to see the best fireworks show EVER! seriously. it was awesome! the finale alone included about 100 fireworks going off in 3minutes. yep insane!

and in between the two events me and kyle hiked the Y! since kyle finished his last final tuesday we've been trying to get back in to shape! we've been playing tennis, working out at the gym, swimming, hiking, and going on walks! hopefully we can keep it up when kyle starts school again!

at the rodeo! they're doing the wild milking event where one cowboy has to rope the cow, while his teammate cowboy has to try to get some milk from it before another team does!

i took a couple pictures of us but they turned out too blurry:(
