Summer Fun

Camping Trip

I know I'm the biggest blog slacker... EVER! This is going to be the longest blog in all of history because we had such a fun summer!! To start summer off I promised Colb I would go camping with him. He always complains how I'm so "high maintenance" and so to prove him wrong camping I would go... On one condition; that was if there was a tent. We decided we would go with our friends Rob and Rachel, the experts of camping :) I was working all afternoon so I told Colby to get all of our stuff ready so we could leave right as soon as I got done. Before we left I double checked with him to make sure he got the tent and he said yes. I also asked him if I should get a blow up mattress so we could sleep on it and he gave me a look like.. you're kidding right!? So I said okay okay I can rough it up! Well we got headed up the mountain and it was pretty late and we were 5 min. from our camping site and 2 hours out of Cedar when Rob made the comment "I love sleeping under the stars in the mountains." Of coarse I'm thinking they're crazy for sleeping under the stars and I checked with Colby a third time and said "You got our tent.. right Hunny?" There was a pause before he responded "Nope, we're sleeping under the stars too." If you could only have heard what was going threw my mind!! I didn't say anything because I didn't want Rob and Rachel to think I was a baby because Rachel is pregnant and doing this.. why couldn't I. Then no kidding 2 minutes later Colby starts FREAKING out and saying "oh heck" and "you've got to be kidding me" and a bunch of other phrases and put me in a panic and I started asking him what was wrong. He then told me how he forgot our sleeping bags and they were in the back of his truck (which was in Cedar) and so there we are.. NO TENT, NO SLEEPING BAGS all out in the wilderness! We were to far out of town to turn around and our friends just said oh just share ours. We'll zip our 2 together and all share. :) They are so sweet for bailing us out! To make things worse because I put Colby in charge of getting our food.. he didn't! Rachel made extra dinners for us and as a wife I felt so stupid because usually we have things together like tents, sleeping bags, food for the trip ya know the essentials. This trip showed me to never trust Colby about "roughing" it cause he REALLY means it and he is willing to lie (about having a tent and really not) to get me to go somewhere AND never leave him in charge of a woman's job! Even though we went completely unprepared it was so much fun! We had so many fun pictures but they all got deleted because they were on Colby's camera and he deleted them so deer and elk pictures would fit.... :) I love that man!


Week with my Sister and her family

At the end of June I was able to go to Lake Powell for a couple days with my sister and her 2 boys and my parents. We had so much fun just the 6 of us! We were planning on spending a whole week there but Desi could only stay a couple of days. Since I had the whole week off I decided to go up to Lehi for the rest of the week and spend more time with her and her family. I was able to be up there for my nephew Mckoy's birthday and the 4th of July. It was such a fun getaway! I wish we lived closer so we could play more!!

Me and my nephews! Mckoy and Drey
