4th of July

This year we celebrated the forth of july on the 3rd since the 4th was on a Sunday. We went to the park and had a yummy bbq, played soccer and water balloon games and then went home to light a few fireworks. We had a great time celebrating together!
Let the games begin!

Liane LOVED the poppers...
and the sparklers!!

Girls Camp




I recently got called to be the First Counselor in the Young Womens presidency at church. I LOVE my calling! The young women are amazing and I am learning and growing so much just being around them and trying to progress like they are. Right after the new presidency was called, it was time to go to Girls Camp! I joined the church at 19 so I missed the whole young womens program and therefore never had the chance of attending camp. I was way excited to go (even though I had to be away from Salomon and Liane for 3 days which I have never done before). Heavenly Father blessed us to have a wonderful and safe trip, as well as blessed me to have handled the separation from my family very well. Looking forward to next years camp!

Taylorsville Dayzz and visit from Adrienne






Taylorsville Dayzz is a way fun weekend here in Taylorsville, UT. Full of carnival rides, food, games, shows and fireworks (not to mention the 5K and parade that start the festivites off - pics to come soon). This particular year was especially specail since my cousin Adrienne came out to visit us all. We have not seen her in about 10 years so it was so good to catch up and reconnect (thank you Facebook for that :-). A great time was had by all... looking forward to next year!
