4th of July weekend

We had a fun filled weekend over the 4th. Aaron even made it for a couple of days. The girls were so excited to see him after two weeks and there were many tears when he left. We enjoyed all the the f's over the 4th - food, friends, fun and family!!

Bergen found a new hobby - she loves to make pottery. Grandpa and grandma took her to an art fair and she was able to make a bowl on a pottery wheel. Now she is taking a class working on the pottery wheel. She is LOVING it.


Ava loves to jump and jump and jump.

Daddy even took a turn. The girls showed him some tricks


We made it to the Hyrum City 4th of July parade. It was hot, hot, hot, but all of the candy was worth it if you ask Ava.
Here's the Jorgensen crew at the parade. I even saw Karen Sorensen going to meet her family. She is off to Brazil this week. She told me to tell everyone HELLO. That was a fun surprise.


The Logan Celebration Centre was hit again this year. Bergen and Ava had an absolute blast. They even rode the children's swing, which went pretty darn high.

Ava warmed up for the bigger rides on the Frog Hopper!

Miniature golfing

Bergen has been asking to fish this summer. So we loaded everyone up and went up to 2nd Dam in Logan Canyon. Beautiful.
the water was crystal clear, but the fish weren't biting
Bergen LOVES this sport. She was really good at it also. She could cast the line like a pro.
Ava liked to hold the pole for a little while and she really liked eating the marshmallows for the fish. No fish caught, but a new sport learned.
