Kick That Ball!

Andrew played his 2nd game of soccer tonight. He's quite the little athlete. He and his best friend Keldin scored a goal! -They were pretty proud. Here's some fun pictures from the evening.

Everybody Say Cheese!

A couple of weeks ago, we decided to have family pictures taken since Michael was leaving on his mission. Adrienne's sister-in-law took tons of pictures. I'm really happy with the way they turned out. Here's a few of them. The whole famly
Grandma, Grandpa, and the grandkids!

What a weekend!

Last Wednesday, I received a message on my phone from Laura at 570KNRS stating that I'd won two tickets to Gladys Knight, a one night stay at the Mariott in Park City, and dinner for two at the Park City Grill. -I couldn't believe it. I was so EXCITED. I picked up the prize at their studio and called Aaron and told him the big news. He was just as excited as me. Anyway, we went to Park City this weekend, and we had a great time. -Thank you Kent and LouJean for watching our kids. It was such a fun FREE trip! We felt like we were on our honeymoon again. Me ...trying to decide what to do first
Two beds to ourselves ...with no kids!
Aaron's dinner (Filet Mignon, potatoes, and veggies)
My dinner (Rotissere Turkey, mashed potatoes, asparagus, and carrots)
We ordered two starters, two entrees, two side salads, and two deserts! We were stuffed.

Fishing at Tibble Fork

Last Thursday, our family (Minus Andrew) went fishing with Grandma and Grandpa Walker at Tibble Fork. We had a lot of fun, and we caught five fish! Here are some pics.

Michael went into the MTC yesterday!

Yesterday, My brother Michael went into the MTC. I think it was a very emotional day for all of my family, especially my mom. I think Michael is ready, and that he'll be an amazing missionary. Last Friday, we had family pictures done. Following the pictures, we had dinner at California pizza kitchen.
Bree enjoyed eating the crayons more than the pizza!
Andrew got to have a taste of what the MTC is like. I am glad his uncles, brother-in-laws, and Dad have been such good examples.
Michael was set apart as an elder Tuesday night.
Our family minus me

Anji is having a boy!

(Anji Stephens, Natalie Smith and her daughter Ava, and me!)

On Saturday Aug. 2nd, I went to a baby shower for my friend Anji (Findley) Stephens. Anji was one of my roomates at USU. She made my first year of college so much fun. It was great to see her. -It's been 10 years since we were in school, but she hasn't changed at all. Anji is having a boy, and he's due in October. I can't wait to see what he looks like.

Bear Lake

This past weekend, our family went to Bear Lake. Bear Lake is such a fun place. For those of you who've never been, it's a great place for a vacation. My family has been every year since I was little. We always stay in some condos on the south side of the lake (Ideal Beach Resort). The resort has a couple of pools with saunas, a miniature golf course, an arcade, a playground, and of course an awesome beach. Outside of the resort, there is a big golf course, minatonka cave, pickleville playhouse, and of course raspberry shakes from Laboes. There is so many things you can do. Here are some pics from our weekend

Aaron took this picture of me after we'd gone swimming in the Lake. I was pooped!
