BABY :)

Well for those of you who have not heard we found out a couple of weeks ago that we are having a baby. Sarah is 10 weeks along and we had our first appointment on monday. We were able to meet the doctor and get the heads up about what to expect. We also tried to listen to the heartbeat but nothing. The doctor said it was normal and to come back in 2 weeks to have a listen. So we will just have to wait. It was a big surprise when we found out but we are excited and can't wait to be parents. But I think we should keep it in the oven for a while longer and let it...get a little cuter. lol.

John

4th Of July

Well, where do I even begin to start? First of all Happy 9th Birthday to miss Savannah Wray. On the 3rd I went with my friend Cynthia to save spots on the parade route for her family and mine. It was beyond hot and there was way too many people. While sitting there bored we saw a guy on a bike get hit by a Suburban and multiple car accidents. Also later on in the night fights down at seven eleven and the library. John and I stayed up the whole night and just talked and hung out with friends. Morning came and after freezing our butts off it was finally time to move our blankets out into the road. Well the people that were behind us on the side walk didn't like that we were moving our stuff in front of them. Which isn't the first time. They got mad at me for the past two years. So we sat on the curb waiting and the guy came uo and stood by my side just yelling at us. Telling us how he's been sleeping out all night long and we have no right to be "cutting" in front of them and if we don't move then we will be "physically"(he put up the ") moved by the cops. So we stood our ground and just sat there. The only thing that we said to them was that it was city property and there was nothing that they could do. So the wife gets on the phone and calls Provo police. Meanwhile the husband just keeos yelling and calling us stupid teenages and immature and badmouthing us. The wife comes over and said cops can't do anything. Which was no news to us. Then the wife starts throwing her blankets all around us and setting up chairs to block us in. And when we tried to move them the lady starts screaming and telling us not to touch her property. Meanwhile my friend was on the phone with cops because they were getting physical and the husband was threatening us. He was standing there telling us that because the cops won't do anything he will. He was saying how this parade would be the worst ever for us, he and his family were going to sit so close to us it would make us uncomfortable and that he was going to (once again) "accidentally" throw food on us. Which made us laugh. Then we picked up our blankets and moved them to the street. Which only added gas to the fire. John was sitting on one balnket and I was on another. They both come running out and start trying to pull and push John off the blanket. They tore the blanket and started pulling him towards the road. Well an undercover cop saw this going on and stopped and finally got the lady to stop. When she saw him she looked like she had just pooped her pants. It was pretty hilarious. The cop starts talking to her and she's explaining how she stayed out all night to save for 200 people, and how it wasn't fair and we were ignorant teenagers. And then two more cops showed up and she went off telling her sad story to them too. In the end the cops laughed that this lady was saving for 200 people and also told her that it was indeed city property and there was nothing they could do. They told her it was just a parade and not to get so worked up about it. They told John and I that we could stay where we were and that the fighting needed to stop. And of course because we were the younger of the two others, which were by the way in their 50 or 60's, the cops believed them that we were full of attitude. It Still didn't settle down. She had someone get her a ton of maracas and tamberines and her and her grand kids tried to make as much noise as they could. Which didn't bother us at all. The fact that she got a lot of kids under 10 to join in on her little plan just showed how immature she was. It finally settled down until Cynthia's parents came and she started fighting with them. So it kinda got big again and once again another cop came over to stop it. This time finally it was for good. The parade went on with no more fights and it was peaceful. The cop had told us that we could have pressed charges for the physical part but we were way too tired and just thought we'd be the bigger people. That was our parade fun. Later that night I went to stadium of fire with the Wray's while John went and shot off fireworks with his friends. Miley Cyrus just wasn't his thing. Overall Stadium was amazing. I wasn't particularly fond of Miley, but it was worth seeing the Blue Man group and fireworks. Another Fourth of July came and passed and it was all worth it. The best part of all was that I spent it with John. Hopefully next year there wont be as much drama. But once again as I said it was all worth it.
