Summer!

It's no secret that Summer is my FAVORITE time of the year and we have been livin it up!

Here is a way out of order picture overload of what we've been up to.

Got some tan lines ;)

Grant and I did a 2 week Mommy and Me swim class at the Rec

Went to the Lincoln County Fair

Watched Dad play softball

Went to the Cassia County fair and rodeo

Boating

The biggest event has been Brandon accepting a different position in the Aardema Company and is now running their calf ranch of about 8,000 calves and 35 employees over in Wendell. This means we are looking to build or buy a new house closer to town and to his work. It has been quite stressful! Any advice is appreciated. This house we looked at above has a custom basketball court...of course it's been Brandon's favorite.

Girl's Camp

This year I was our Ward Girl's Camp Director. I was extremely overwhelmed in the beginning, but everything ended up working out just great. Our theme was STAR (Star for Truth and Righteousness) We went up to Cabin Creek camp by Alturus Lake.

It was a great experience and we have great girls in our ward, and a great Young Women's president!

They pushed the Stake Leaders into the lake, it was awesome :)

I brought my mannequin heads to prank the girl's with. We all had a good time with em :)

Here is the flag I made for our ward...I was a bit of an overachiever..most people's were made out of duct tape :)

My house was covered in Girl's Camp projects. Shirts, headbands and bows, glitter, paint, glue...

And now I'm just glad that it's over!

Grant's 2nd Birthday!

Grant turned 2 on July 5th! I cannot even believe that I don't have a baby anymore, I have a little boy!

We kept it low key this year, and just had family over for a dinner.

Shout out to Care for helping me make this banner last minute, and to Vinylizeit for the vinyl and fabric!

 Grant got his favorite food, pasta!

Grant is such a sweet boy and is getting so old. He can say his ABC's and count to 13 :)

He loves: "choo choos", cows...well all animals really, giving Jimmer treats once a day, driving with Dad in his truck, playing with friends, saying prayers, swimming, going on the swing and slide, and FINDING NEMO!

He also really loves to clean up and wash his hands :) I've taught him well!

He is still pretty horrible in church. He just is go, go, go at all times and does NOT like to sit still!

We love Grant so much and have loved the past 2 years!

4th of July

Once again, I'm playing catch up! We had a great 4th of July in Lewiston, Utah.

 It's cool to pick your nose at parades

 Brandon was ruthless when it came to the Otterpops

 I love this picture! Brandon took Grant to run though the firetruck's hose and he LOVED it!

 Then we went boating in Burley

 And THEN we went and watched fireworks at John and Care's! Their neighbor does one of the best show I've seen. Grant loved watching them on the tramp with his cousins.

And here's my other baby all snuggled up watchin the show :)

Memorial Day Weekend

Here are some pics from our fun Memorial Day Weekend! We decided last minute to join the Clinger and Moyes families up at my uncle David's cabin by Andersen Ranch Reservoir. It was wet and cold but we still had lots of fun! Sunday we went over to Sun Valley for a few hours before coming home. And Monday we went to a BBQ at John and Care's! It was nice to get away and we're grateful to have so much family close by.
