Friends!

True friends are those who, even if you haven't seen them in forever, can get together and pick up right where you left off! Like you just hung out yesterday! (Thats my own personal definition!) It had been too long since we saw eachother last! I love these girls! So many awesome memories. We try to get together often, but it's not often enough.

Summer!

Aaaahhhh. Its here! I don't know why I get so excited for summer.? I'm not crazy about the heat. But I AM crazy about:

• swimming
• going to Marysvale
• Ian doesn't HAVE to work(even though he still does)
• being lazy
• family reunion
• watermelon
• fireworks
• ice cream
• our anniversary :)
• camping
• VACATIONS!!!!!!!

Ready or not it's here! Hope everyone has a safe and FUN summer!

SWAGGER WAGON

Lauren put this on facebook last week and I just had to post it for all my non-facebook friends! TOO FUNNY!!

Moms

I just want to give a little shout out. I know its a couple weeks late, but I love moms! Especially mine! I think it is so awesome to watch young moms, new moms, people you thought would never be a mom, transform into the role. It just comes so natural and they look like they were meant to have a baby on their hip.

My mom is who I want to be when I grow up! She loves and supports us no matter what! My sisters and sis-in-law are such good moms, but I know they've learned from the best! ;) My grandma is such an awesome lady! She is so funny! Always keeps us laughing! I have a great mother-in-law! I could go on and on! I am so lucky to have so many great examples in my life and I know someday I will get the opportunity to be a mom! But for now I will just enjoy watching all of you :)
haha! love grandma in the background of this pic-so cute!

Life is good

I have been in kind of a slump lately. Didn't think I really had anything blog-worthy to share. But then I started thinking about all that we did the last month or so.... and life is good!
Here goes....

*Chase and Melissa came out!!! YESSSS! We had a blast while they were here. We had a little BBQ, and it was so fun to see everyone and catch up!
*We did NOT attend the fair!!
*Ian and Ross went for a MTB ride while Kam and I got massages! Even though i got the man who kept rubbing his hairy arms on me.......It was still a massage!
*Went to Savior of the World with YW Presidency(some) and my mom!
*Went to Hoover Dam and took a Dam tour with the Strattons(most of them)!
*Had a girls night before Jess leaves! :( sniff sniff...... It was fun though. Loved Alice in Wonderland!!(yes i'm a little odd)
*Did a little yard work(well Ian and Mason did! Thanks!)

We're doing great! Trying to fit some fun things in with our busy lives: Work, YW, YM, Baseball games, Ian's Masters(yes that involves both of us), Ian's work out schedule and diet! Geez! ;)
Hope all is well with all y'alls!!
(sorry about the no-pic post)

Spring Break and Easter

We didn't do much over spring break...kinda boring. I had to work a couple days, so we just hung out around home and went for some rides :)


On Easter we braved the wind to do our annual Easter egg roll and jump contest. Pretty sure I won both. It was WINDY! But fun!!

The "Mint"

Every year when I was young(er) we would wake up early, pack up the cooler, and head to the desert to watch this!

(This is for Chase-sorry you missed it :(

We would get our first sunburn of the year(I know.. real smart huh!) and watch some racin! We Loved it! Miss the good ol days!

This year it was on the same day as Mason and Chelsi's wedding. The boys got up early and went out to watch some of the action before we had to go to the sealing. Then on the way home we decided we had some time to kill before the reception, so we went back out and watched some more!
