4th of July Weekend!






for the 4th of July weekend Randan I and miss Emma went Camping. we got there Friday night around 1:00 and looked for a camping spot near the twin lakes in Bridgeport CA. it was packed!! after looking for 2 hours we gave up and slept the night in the truck. Saturday morning we found a perfect spot inbetween Lake Tahoe and Yosemite. It was perfect!! so we set up camp and went to Sonora Pass. oh my goodness it was beautiful. The next day we went to Yosemite National Park. There were waterfalls EVERYWHERE! for sure one of the prettiest places I've been. and the next day we spent the day at Lake Tahoe. We had an absolute blast. Tahoe was having fireworks over the lake that we were so so excited for but they weren't until 9:45 and we were an hour away from our camp so we decided to just head back. kind of a bummer but we still had a blast!
The 4th of july is such a special holiday to me. for sure a day to be celebrated! it used to just be a fun day of fireworks and BBQ's but with Randan being in the Military it really makes me appreciate what it celebrates, which I'm so thankful for! its also the day Randan proposed (just a side-note :) I'm so thankful to all those in the service and to those who have been in the past! I'm thankful for all the freedoms I have and this wonderful country we have to live in! Thanks hun for all you do! hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July!
