Update

I am not really sure where to even begin. We had a fabulous summer which explains why I haven't blogged at all. I will try to do this in the least words possible with the most pictures possible because Libby informed me she doesn't like to look at my blog because it is just "words."  Summer started out with a move followed shortly by another move. We both worked full-time and I took classes for the first part of the summer. It is safe to say that I hope to never have to work full-time, go to school full-time and move twice in the same semester ever again. It was just plain exhausting but so worth it. School ended mid June which is when the fun began I guess. Brandon already blogged about our fishing trip on the Green River which was amazing. Our next vacation was to Bryce Canyon with Brandon's family.We went hiking in Bryce Canyon a couple of times, hiked to a waterfall, went fishing a lot (Brandon says we caught 50 (post edit I meant to say it was easily 100) fish and by we I mostly mean Brandon, his dad, and his brothers), played games, went four wheeling, had water fights, Brandon got in a cow pie fight with his cousin and got nailed in the face, and mostly just had a lot of fun. We are so glad his family has this tradition!













After Panguitch, we headed up to Flaming Gorge with my family. In flaming gorge we went boating as much as the weather would permit, went cliff jumping, we floated the Green River (my personal favorite even though it POURED rain on us), the boys went fishing (this is probably the only time in my entire life that I have not been fishing in Flaming Gorge), we tried to have the annual game of Psychic (another post edit, it is actually called Psychiatrist) but that flamed out fast, we ate (another personal favorite), watched movies, listened to Thomas' latest hit, "This is a cabin, not a trailer" too many times, and relaxed. We especially enjoyed the new "cabin" that my Grandparents got this year.











Other noteworthy events recently that I don't have any pictures of include seeing the Lion King with my family at the Capital Theater, going to the BYU football game with Brandon's family last night, birthdays, birthdays, and more birthdays, Libby's baptism, Bear Lake with our friends the Hope's, and I am sure I am forgetting a lot. All in all, it was a great summer and we are loving life right now. I am especially excited that come this winter, I will be done with school! If I don't post until then, just know it is because school is consuming my life.

Yay! This was much needed. I love the pic with Lys and Chasey. You are so beautiful Lala, and I am so happy we saw you at the theater about a month ago. If you guys get a chance to go back you should go see Knight and Day, it's kind of like the A-team... really funny!
