besides plenty of tasty food, we got to see and spend time with the family and i learned to play euchre (don't worry, i didn't know what it was either!). euchre (pronounced ewe-kher) is a northern card game that can best be described as "bridge" meets "hearts" but if you want more information on it, click here. i had heard about the game many times from my hubby and in-laws, but this was the first time anyone actually attempted to teach me. the game is actually a lot of fun, but i think i enjoyed watching everyone argue over the rules, how to deal and how many cards to use *before* we started playing even more than the actual game ;)
after eating (more) and watching some of Grease on TV, matt and i headed to the fireworks in plain city with his uncle chris, aunt natalie and their two kiddos. lexi also got to join in on the fireworks watching this year.....she wasn't all that impressed. fortunately, she wasn't upset by them, either.
