We're Off

Tomorrow Jessica, Graham and I are headed to California so I can run the Disneyland 1/2 Marathon on Sunday! (So all of you at church.... Pray for me PLEASE!)

We will also get to this little lady and I am so excited! I have missed her so much!

So until Wednesday......

New Apartment

The Biggest thing that has happened this month is that I have moved into my very own apartment! I LOVE living alone . After years and years of great and crappy roommates I am not only ready to write a book about it but also ready to live ALONE. It was a bit of an adjustment but I really do love it now. My mom/family hates it and think I live in the GHETTO but its Sugarhouse not Kearns, I think I'll be ok! As you can see it needs some decorating help but it will come together soon enough!

Lake Powell

So I haven't had the Internet for awhile and I have been really busy but here are some pictures of Lake Powell! We had so much fun! I hadn't been in about 4 years and have missed it so much!

On the way home we stopped in Bryce Canyon. I had never been there and it was BEAUTIFUL!

Kenny Chesney!

A few weeks ago Shellie and I went to see Kenny.... Again! It was AMAZING as always!!!! Ridiculously hot but amazing nonetheless. I seriously love him! Ha Ha!

4th of July

These past few weeks have been crazy busy and so much fun! The 4th of July is my favorite holiday! I didn't take very many pictures with my camera but if you live in Provo you have a pretty good idea of what all the festivities look like!

My Mom's Birthday Dinner at The Old Spaghetti Factory!

Megan and Chris and there 3 kids drove up from California to spend the week in Provo. We went to Park City, Boating, 7-peaks, and of course enjoyed the 4th of july to the fullest (like any good Provo Native should!)

This year Shellie and I ran in the Freedom Run. I was so nervous, running is so new to me and I didn't want to embarrass

myself. It was actually a lot of fun and I am so glad that we did it.

Then I met up with my family and we watched the Grande Parade. In case you missed it, it is the same as it has been for as long as I can remember. But tradition nonetheless.

Then we had a great BBQ/Pool Party. I think hot dogs taste better on the 4th (maybe its just me).

Then to top off the day we went to the Stadium of Fire! After last years disaster with Miley Cyrus we were all nervous but the Jonas Brothers were so fun!

It was a long day but I can't wait until next year!

California Pics

Here are some even longer overdue pictures of Jessica and I's trip to California to watch Ava! It was a looooooooooong week, but we made it! 

This is how Ava greeted me... followed by 10 mins of uncontrollable sobs... She warmed right up!

The Beach was FREEZING! 

Ava trying on my shades at the zoo!

Graham and Ava checking out the Giraffes

Ava Decided she needed a snack...nevermind the Giraffe 3 ft away from her head!

Look at the Flamingos! 

I just came out with the food... they were excited! 

(I can appreciate that :))

Eating our Blue Bell Ice Cream! One of my favorite things about Texas!!!

Yes I took a picture of the ice cream..... Deal with it!

Graham running through the airport with his Dada! So Cute!!!

How do you keep a 20 month old busy on the plane? Thomas The Train, a MacBook, and Headphones... Pure Genius!

It was such a fun getaway and I am so glad we got to share this big accomplishment with Scott!
