Amanda, Nessa and I went down to St. George to be with Kak and Blake. I love getting to spend time with my sisters!! A girl couldn’t have asked for better sisters!

Foxie!! I sure do love this dog!!
Paco is such a good dog!! He is great to travel with! <3
Haning out at the luncheon.

While we were down there we went to Fiesta Fun and had some fun at the batting cages and slick tracks! Love these girls!!

In February I made some new friends! In May they need a ride to the airport so Nessa and I drove them up and Colby had some fun taking pictures! Love that silly boy!

After we dropped them off I took Ness to eat at the Mayan! We loved it! Watching the divers was so much fun!

We ordered a yummy dessert!!

Lake Powell Trip #2!!
Sadly Kak couldn’t join on this trip but we still had tons of fun!! Colby did such a GREAT job swimming, jumping off the boat and going down the slide. At first he was scared to do all three but once he tried he was hooked!!! He is now a swimming MACHINE!!! <3

Colby going down the slide! A couple times and he was hooked! After a while he was brave enough to put his arms up! :)

Vegas!!!!
Kak, Blake, Amanda, Matt and I went to Vegas before I started back at the school. It was fun! We went and visited Pawn Stars! Stayed at a nice hotel. Their pool was awesome!!! They had a slide that went through sharks! We walked the strip and had fun shopping!








Two weeks ago I started working at Noah Webster again. It has been a lot of fun! I have been crazy busy and working a ton and be extremely exhausted but I sure do love it!!!

I hope you all had a great summer vacation as well!!!
