Some of my memories from july are.  Always going to the fireworks.  We started out on the armory lawn and we would get ice cream from the turtle reams.  then they closed the lawn and we started going to the lawn next to the IHC hospital.   before that we would have a BBQ at mom and dads and enjoyed lots of fun family time.

another memory is ... always going with dad to the mapleton days 24th of july parade.  Dad loves parades and I usually was up early enough to go with him.  We always got donuts to eat while watching the parade.

The first 4th of July I spent with the Stonehocker family was two years ago in 2012. Lance and I were newly engaged at that time. We got together with everyone and had some delicious BBQ food at the Stonehockers. A few of us got sent to buy some corn on the cob for the BBQ. As we were driving someone said "I wonder if any place will be open today to buy corn." At the time I didn't realize it would be an insult to suggest Allens, Joe and Lance then taught me of the Stonehocker's deep and unwavering love of Harward Farms corn haha! Later that night we headed to Provo to see the firework show from the Stadium of Fire. I can remember riding with Cynthia, Eldon, Lance, and Haley to the fireworks. Brittany and Marshall stopped and picked up some popsicles on their way for everyone to enjoy while we waited for the show to start. Lance experienced bad vertigo that summer and this was the first time I remember him talking about it. Lance felt dizzy during the show but we both still enjoyed the fireworks. Luckily his vertigo went away right before we got married! It was a very fun day with the family and they made me feel very welcome and at home.
