We spent the long weekend up in Midway, but we were able to go to the Kaysville parade in our holiday outfits before. I’m digging these new traditions in our new hoooood. We’ve met some dear friends + as we start to put down our roots, I’m giddy about this transition. Which is refreshing because I was starting to second guess our relocation.
The weekend was filled with water balloons, backflip practice, otterpops, outdoor movies (video games for the boys), sleeping under the stars, bike parade that finished just in time for the storm to roll through, fireworks off of monument hill, manicures + a razor ride up to the top of the world! It was sooooo dang good.
Grateful for an incredible mother in law who is very intentional with her time + advice. She’s a counselor by profession + I look to her for parenting tips + tricks any chance I can.
Jon is very independent, confident + compassionate – – – I admire the way he was raised. We spent the weekend chatting motherhood, healthy food ideas + she sent me some printouts to help me communicate with the boys a bit better. Fingers crossed for success in raising confident kids + step further away from helicopter parenting. I bought this book immediately when I got in the car on the way home. Looking forward to diving in!
Anyways, overall an increddddible 4th of July with the family! I rode up to Jenna’s wedding with Bre the next day + it was the perfect top to a wonderful weekend. Hope yours was funnnn, too! xx
oh I love that you have a great relationship with your MIL. Would you be willing to share that printout??? I could use the mom-to-mom tips
Hey Teresa – – – I’d love to share it with you! She’s seriously the best! I sorta wish it was a digital copy, but I’ll just snap a pic + send it to your email! What is your email?
