Summer Breezes

Scarlett and the Marker

Scarlett loves getting into Elizabeth's markers...but when she does the result is a scary one, lol.

Summertime is always the best of what might be

It's Summertime!

My parents swimming pool is finally open! Can't wait to spend the afternoons there this summer!

Elizabeth & Tooth #2

Elizabeth lost her first front tooth! (Upper A- on June 24, 2012) She was excited to have a note from the tooth fairy when she woke up telling her how brave she was for pulling out her own tooth!

Just Us Girls

I just love these girls,they totally brighten my day!!

Arise & Shine Forth

"I won't flirt with the darkness that I am here to fight, I'm a daughter of God, and I'm holding on to my virtue, I am confident in my divinity. You'll find me on my Father's side, no matter what the world may do." I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to be so involved with girls camp. Being a camp director was so much fun planning and participating! I am grateful that Ryan was willing to take care of our girls, so that I could go up to camp and send a couple days with the young women. Even though it was only a couple days, I really had the chance to get to know each of the girls. I think what I will treasure the very most is being able to go with my two youngest sisters. It's not everyday that you get to go back to girl's camp 11 years later and your two little sisters come with you. The first day I was there, we all had a good time hiking up to a pond, jumped into a pond. It was so fun watching the girls jump in completely spontaneous.

"If you want to give light to others, you have to glow yourself" -President Thomas S. Monson The girls really did shine so bright!

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there! I hope you had a wonderful day surrounded by loved ones! I feel beyond lucky to have such an amazing Father that loves me and believes in me and was an incredible example to me! I think my girls are just as blessed as I was, because they will never have a father that loves and protects them more dearly than their daddy! Thank you Ryan for loving us and being such a wonderful father, we are so lucky to have you!

We were able to visit Ryan's brother Randy and his father Rodney too!

Park City

What better way to start off our yearly Park City vacation then some delicious smores!!

6.13.12 We spent the morning making sock puppets with all the kids, they had so much fun.

Enjoyed swimming most of the afternoon.

All the adults went out to celebrate my parents wedding anniversary. When we got back, the kids put on a puppet show for us all, and we ended the evening out by the fire.

6.14.12 Spent most of the day at the Park with the kids. They love going to the park and then riding the bus back to the hotel.

6.15.12 The kids kept busy with crafts in the morning.

Got some more sun.

The kids spent more time with some activities.

Happy 65th Birthday Dad!!

My dad turned the big 65, and we threw him a big birthday bash! It was so fun to see everyone that came and supported my dad. I knew we would have a good turn out, because what can I say, I have an AWESOME dad...but it was overwhelming to watch the guests continuing to flow in. It was really neat! Happy Birthday D, your my Hero!
