4th of July and Miracles.

We had a great time this weekend. We got to go down to Birdseye on Friday for a family barbeque and then shoot fireworks after. We really enjoyed a chance to see Aaron's sister Gentry who is now headed back for her new posting.

Saturday we went to Crystal Hot Springs for the Gardner Family Reunion on my mom's side of the family. Aaron hadn't met a lot of my aunts and uncles on that side of the family so that was really nice. We also got to go swimming which was pretty fun until Aaron lost his glasses down the water slide. Fortunatly after about an hour of searching and some help from the lifeguards we found them. Yeah! Miracle #1

On that same trip down Aaron got water in his ears which isn't good since he has tubes. His ear hurt a bit but around 7 the pain was getting really bad. We headed towards Logan asap and got to the instacare where they decided to wash out his ears and make the pain almost unbearable. I have never seen Aaron show any pain and he could barely talk it was so bad. They sent him home with some antibiotics and serious pain killers. Aaron took both when we got home but the pain just got worse and worse. Finally around 11:30 we got a hold of some friends and a nieghbor to come and give Aaron a blessing. By the time they left he was dealing with the pain better and was able to sleep through the night. Sunday he was starting to feel better. Miracle #2

We are truly blessed and are so grateful for wonderful friends and neighbors. We were truly humbled this weekend and are so grateful for the blessings of the priesthood.
