What a summer it is kicking off to be!

So it's official, Blogging is not my biggest strength but I'm going to get better! I've had a busy summer so far though so there is plenty to talk about! My family took an unscheduled trip to California and we got to go to the beach for part of it. If you know me at all you probably know that I love the ocean that that single-handedly made the trip a highlight point of my summer!

I also got to introduce Mike and Whit to Boogie Boarding and their soon to be daughter who I have every intention of teaching when she gets older!


I also have gotten to have my parents visit twice and am loving hearing when they are learning about Oman. I am very excited to start planning our trips out there!
My youngest brother Brian will be home from his mission this Wednesday and I cant wait! He's spent the last two years living in Romania and I'm so excited to have him back in Utah with us! Last time he moved to Utah I moved to Seattle so this will be the first time we are all in the same place at the same time. We are planning to do a triathlon as a team later this summer! I will be swimming, Brian will bike and Mike will be our runner.

We also had our cousins come for a visit and we spent a few days at Park City. The trip was really fun and quite the adventure. There was a little problem with our reservation so we spent the first night piled into a one bedroom condo with a couch bed but that just made it more memorable! (The gnome was our trip mascot- his name is Henry.)


All in all, we are off to a good start for the summer and even though it is now August, we are just getting started! I promise to be better at blogging too!
