Our crazy weekend!!

Yes! We came home from a day at the beach
We usually go camping over Labor Day weekend. This year we decided to stay home and see what there was to offer. We had a whirlwind weekend- Here is what we did!!

HAIRCUTS

BEES GAME (in a suite!!!)

VOLLEYBALL (at Jon's aunts house)

CHURCH

(I had to give a talk too!! I was way nervous)

ROCKPORT BEACH

(Thanks for a great time!!)

BURGLARIZED

We came home from a day at the beach to find our house was broken into. I feel so disgusted and violated. AAAAAHHHHHH!! It makes me feel crazy and sick that someone was in my house going through our stuff!

So there was our weekend. Hope you all had wonderful 3 day weekend!! And make sure that you write the serial #'s from all of your big ticket item down and lock them with your important documents.

Last night I went to the Darius Rucker concert with Christa and we brought Grady & Marshall. He was playing at the Sandy Amphitheatre and I have to say that is a great venue. It only seats 3000 people and we sat out on the lawn with our blankets and ate our food and enjoyed some good music. He has made such a great transition into country music, you wouldn't know that he never sang country. All in all it was a good time. Thanks Christa for hanging with me!!

Here we go again!

The football season is officially upon our household! The first Utah game is tonight and I think Jon would shout for joy and do a little dance if he showed his emotions!! Jon & Hudson will be there with all their Ute bells on! So here is too a great season for the Utes and a looooong season of football in my house!

Huddy goes to school

The day has finally come. I had to let my first baby go to school today! I always wondered why parents had such a hard time letting their kids go on the first day. I always said that I would never cry when I dropped him off. Well guess who kept tearing up? Yes, it was me. Now I know what all those other parents knew. I had to let someone else be the boss (which is not easy for me!!)

Kaysee was here

Kaysee was here for awhile. I am glad I got to spend the time that I did. Here are some pics from her visit.

Here we are 16 years later than the picture from the ABC's of our friendship. Compare those pics together- big difference!!

Here's our kids + Marshall (our nephew)

Kaysee & her kids came up camping for a couple of days at Pine View

Here are the kids roasting marshmallows

Kaysee made the perfect smores

Kaston & Hudson

Just Hangin!! This tree was a hit up camping!

On the beach

It was good times while she was here. We shopped, ate & camped. What more could I ask for !!!

And our kids had fun together as well. I will make my way to Texas sometime!!

4 Wheelin

We have been doing a little 4 wheelin this summer. It has just started feeling like summer so we have not been camping as much as I would like to but we will take what we can get!

How many boys can you fit into a UTV?

My kids fall asleep to any movement!!

I love America

I absolutely LOVE the 4th of July! The time of year, the food, the fireworks, the freedom. It is my second favorite holiday of the year. I really love that me and my family live in a land that we can do anything we want. I want to say thanks to all of the soldiers who are fighting to keep us safe and free, they have to sacrifice so much for us to have what we want. I also want to thank God for all of our freedoms and for blessing me with so much. Everyone have a safe holiday weekend and give thanks to the man above for allowing you to live in the land of the free.
