We survived our first holiday in Minnesota. I think it was a little bittersweet for both of us. We are excited to be in a new city, but we are used to spending the fourth of July with our families. I think it was harder for Ryan knowing that his brothers were in Provo and he was stuck in Minnesota. However, we made the best of it. The city had a celebration called Red, White, and BOOM. It was within walking distance of our apartment along the Mississippi River. They had music from several bands, fried food on a stick, and fireworks. Ryan had the biggest corndog I have ever seen! My favorite part was the people watching. There are some strange people in this city! I bet there was close to 40,000 people there. (double the entire population of Sevier county) We live in a huge city. We stayed to watch the fireworks and then walked home.

Star Spangled Minnesota
Ryan stared school on July first. He is alreday very busy! He has an anatomy class from 6-9 at night, three days a week. He is gone most of the day. I am getting a little bored. I have been sleeping in, grocery shopping, and watching The View. I am glad that I will be working soon because I am going a little crazy. I do not want to be a stay at home wife! Needless to say, we were both ready for the long holiday weekend.
