Summer's Here!

Summer is finally here at our house! The Garden is growing, BBQ's with friends and neighbors are well on there way, hanging out by the pool and playing at the Park are just some of our favorite summertime activities. Along with the beginning of Summer or should I say June comes Birthday's! Mine is first and then Jack's is just a couple days later. I LOVE to celebrate and have an excuse to have a PARTY. I hope your kick-off to SUMMER is wonderful and full of fun!

ALL CAUGHT-UP

I know I haven't posted for a LONG time, so here it goes. I'll get all caught-up only to hopefully not fall behind again! Why is it that May is such a BUSY month? We've been running and running! I've complied a list to catch-up...sorry no pictures for your viewing pleasure :(.

- May 8th we celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary. It was a great date-nite. Rob and I have really been blessed to have each other in our lives. I know he makes me a better person, he makes me try new things and he helps me see life through different glasses. We have TONS of fun together and I am looking forward to many, many more years! Love you Rob!

- Ran in the annual Race For the Cure with some friends from the neighborhood. I am always so touched to see the masses of mostly women out supporting each other!

- Yard work, yard work, yard work...need I say more?

- We've been hitting the box office lately. Before having Jack I really took for granted going to a movie. Now it is a real treat to sit next to Rob, hold hands and watch an uninterrupted non-kid movie.

- Living Traditions Festival, or as Rob and I like to call it, Ethnic Food Night! We love this Festival in downtown SLC! We stumbled across it a couple years ago and love coming back. What is it about tons of little ethnic food booths, great music and friends that make for a perfect night.

- Just got back from a whirlwind trip to Arizona to see my brother Josh and his family. It was a super short trip, but the main reason for going down was to support Josh in his new calling as a Bishop. Josh is a very talented and humble man. He has so much love in his heart for his family and I know he will serve and love his ward. I have told him many, many times how grateful I am to have him as an older brother. He has always been such a good example to me. I have to admit it was a little hard following him in school because he was such a smarty-pants and a perfectionist! We have a great relationship and I am so excited for him and his family as they open up this new chapter in their lives. Josh and Cheryl make a wonderful team...can you call people power couples? If so, they are most definitely one! Good luck Josh and family, we love you lots!

Tulips=Spring

This past week Becca and I made the trek down to Thanksgiving Point to see the Tulip Festival. It was really beautiful. Jack and Luke were little Angles (as long as we kept them full of snacks)and we had a beautiful walk through the gardens. Now if only I can get my garden to look like that!

Jackson Hole Remix

I know I post a LOT about going to Jackson Hole, Wy- it's because we go there a LOT. Just a catch-up from our last vacay there. We had fun chillin' with the Morley's. We ate, slept, played Guitar Hero, ate some more and just relaxed. Thanks for a fun time!


This is the only picture I can get to download right now...more to come.
