L's wedding

Wow, My youngest brother just got married on August 4. It was really fast and unplanned. I was told the Monday before so I had a week to get everything situated to be able to go. I'm glad I went. There was only 1 big blowout, thank goodness it was the night before though. The wedding was good. It was just immediate family since no one else knew about it. I can't believe that my youngest brother is now married.

Family Reunion

This one was awesome!! A n' J rented a cabin for us near Bear Lake. This was a reunion for C's immediate family. Everyone was able to make it. Thursday we rode our 4 wheelers around the 7 mile loop. They have tons of trails and it was really awesome.




Friday we went to the Lake. We all pitched in and rented a boat. Wow talk about fun. We pulled people on the intertube, and we water skiied. Applied sunscreen 5 times to help the little chillin's not get sunburned.

Set up horseshoes and had a few games of that. Played water volleyball.

That night we had a talent show. I can't believe what some of my nephews can do.

Yard Work

We had way too many rocks to pick them all so we finally hauled in some topsoil. We had a friend come over and spread it for us. We hauled in 27 loads. After he had spread it we needed to level it off. This is how C and his Dad decided would be the best way to level it. The wood wasn't heavy enough so C got on top of it. Guys never cease to amaze me with the things they come up with to get the job done.
We have planted grass and hopefully we will have a backyard soon. We'll plant the front once the back is growing good.

4th of July Weekend

My family came to see my new house over the 4th of July. It was so awesome to have them come over. We played Wally Ball. My mom is so cute. She didn't want to play at first. I told her she needed to and that we would have tons of fun. Then while we were playing she says "I didn't think I would be this good." I was so awesome.
My sister in law had a party that night that we went to. C is in a play this year so we went and watched him in that. Then we went back to A's house for fireworks.
Saturday we did a ton of hiking. We hiked to the Intermitten Springs, It was the wrong time of year to see it intermitten though. Then we hiked to Strawberry Meadows. That night C's Aunt, our neighbor threw a Luau party. She's lived in Hawaii for 5 years, the food was really good.
We had a great time with family.

Reunion of sorts

My brother S came home from his mission on Thursday Night. It was so great to see him. It was really funny because when we got home we were talking to him about his biggest fear of coming home. He says it was hugging These!! then he pointed to the women in the room. We all laughed and said thanks for calling us "these" He says sorry that is how the English talk.
It was really fun seeing the whole family. We haven't been all together since he left 2 years ago. It was also cool because he came home 2 days before he turned 21.
We went to South Fork and played in the reservoir. My Dad and brother have kayak's so we floated, swam, and kayaked around. It was really fun. C threw seaweed at my sister T. She was so mad at him she went and sat in the car. She wouldn't swim because of the seaweed. Which was more like grass than seaweed.
I'm glad I was able to go see my whole family. It was a really great weekend.

FUN!!

We have had the privlege of having my youngest brother L. stay with us for the last 3 weeks. We have been having tons of fun. We have done alot of 4 wheelin. He's helped us build fences. We went swimming in the freezing cold water known as Cottonwood Lake. Went go kart racing in IF. We have been going going going. It has been tons of fun though. I'm going to miss him when we take him back home this weekend. I'm including a picture of the new toy I got last year. While the boys were riding the 4 wheeler's M. and I were riding this.

Ouch!!

Last night was so much fun. We played volleyball for young women's. Things were going well, we won one game then the other team came back and beat us for the second game. On the third game you only go to 15. The score was 11-9. We were serving and the other team hit us back to to us. R. hit the ball and it wasn't going to quite make it over the net so I turned, which is a bad thing to do on a carpet floor, jumped tipped the ball heard a bunch of popping in my ankle and I went down.
So I went to the Dr. this morning, turns out I tore the ligament in my ankle. Which Chad says is almost as bad I just don't have to have a cast. The funny thing is C wrapped my ankle this morning, The Dr. liked it so much he says "C did a great job wrapping that tell him to keep it wrapped for you." Then he walked out. So I had to drive to C.'s work with a bare foot to have him come out and re wrap my foot. I couldn't believe that. Aren't Dr.'s great.
