The 4th of July!

Alright! We're finally back to updating our family history. While we were in Albuquerque, Grandma, Grandpa, Nathan, and Lisa came to visit us. Of course, they first thing they did when they got there was fight for who got the best seat on the couch...
But then we started to play dollys and Wii. Finally, Katie got us out the door to the waterpark. Now it is actually not any hotter in Albuquerque than it gets here, but there are water parks EVERYWHERE. Aside from frequenting the one two blocks from our house it seems we went to try a different one every other week. This one happens to be in an area known as Coors, and it was pretty nice. It had full sized water slides and indoor and out door areas. Same price as Heritage Park here in Provo, but about 3 times as big.
One of the teenage female lifeguards caught a little glimpse of Nathan here lounging by the pool and decided she better jump him before any other girls did. She blew her whistle at him and told him he was in trouble. He asked, "What did I do?". "Nothing," she replied, "but do you want to do something tonight?" She pulled him aside again as we were leaving to give him her phone number. While the pierced navel was definitely on Nathan's list of what to look for in a girl, she just wasn't cute enough to get a call back in the end. On another note, Grandma managed to walk through the mens dressing room 3 times while attempting to leave the facility. Despite the effort she didn't get one phone number!
Back at the house the kids practiced their aim while waiting for it to get dark enough for fireworks.Despite original plans to go get shoved around a huge crowd at the Balloon Grounds to watch fireworks, we decided to obtain our own stock and set the off at the park by our house. All in all, we had a great 4th of July.
