Fun Summer Weekend

We had a fun, HOT summer weekend! It was so hot. But I love it! I love this so much more than the frigid winter, which I prefer not to think about.

My sister Jessica and her family passed through Provo so we met up to eat at the Creamery on 9th. I've actually never had a burger there before but it was really good! We don't get to see each other often, and it was really fun to hang out! Her kids are a riot, they are so fun.



































We later went to a natural water slide up by Alpine. It is basically just smoothed rock that you can slide down into the pool of water below. It was really fun! Although for some reason, I bumped around more going down than Jimmy Joe (as you can see from the video!). He says that the faster you try to throw yourself down it, the less it hurt. I didn't buy that. It felt so good to be in the cold mountain water since it was so hot out.





















On the way home from the water slide, we went to my FAVORITE Hawaiian shaved ice stand, in Lindon. It is SO good and pretty cheap. They used to have it located in the parking lot by Cafe Rio in Provo, but ever since last summer it has been at this spot in Lindon. It's so worth the jaunt to go there though. The ice is really fine and the ice cream on the bottom is the best! I got the "Timp Special": peach, raspberry and blueberry. Mmm!

I love doing summer things! And it also reminds me of why I HATE winter. I have to get at least one shaved ice every summer, it's a must!
