Family pictures

Today we had family pictures done at my parents house. I hope they all turned out well, I can't wait to see them. After pictures, Logan was ordained an Elder, so that was really neat to see that ordination take place.

Tomorrow is my first day of school, and I'll be busy! I hope I don't get too burnt out! I'll be taking 16 credits and working full time, so I pretty much won't ever be home! I am in the Elementary Education program, so I think I will really enjoy my classes! Wish me luck!

Damon loved holding Bear, an animal that is small enough form him to hold! 

He really makes the dog look big! 

My birthday

Today I had a wonderful birthday. It all started off having to go to work, which wasn't so wonderful, but I luckly didn't have to put in a full day. When I came home, Casey had a present waiting for me. It was a bag full of dog food, a dog leash and collar and some doggy treats. He said that we were going to go and get me a dog! I was so excited because I have been wanting one for a long time! We visited a lot of places, and finally decided to get a little Maltece. He won't get very big and is just a cute little fluff ball! We still haven't figured out a name yet, but it will come.

We met my family up the canyon for my birthday celebration where we would have tin foil dinners. They were so suprised to see us with a new puppy. We had a nice time up in the canyon until it started to rain, so we decided to head back and have cake at my parents house.

He is a little kisser!

Seven Peaks

On Saterday we all went to Seven Peaks as a family. We had so much fun going down the lazy river, sitting in the wave pool and going down the different tube rides.

Real Salt Lake Soccer Game

On Saterday Casey and I, Autumn and Doug and James and Charity went to the Real Salt Lake Soccer game. Each of us girls had given the boys the soccer tickets for Father's Day back in June, so we have really been looking foreward to this game. It was so much fun! The team did a really good job and won 2 to 1. After that we went out to dinner at Ruby River for a nice steak dinner.

Our Hammock

We just bought a new hammock to put between our two big trees in our backyard. We have been having so much fun with it! On Sunday we both took our Harry Potter books out there and read for a while and then took our Sunday nap on it. It was so relaxing and comfortable!
