Laura

Today is a sad day. My dear friend Laura is moving to Idaho Falls, ID. I have loved getting to know her and being her friend. She taught me a lot of things including being a great mom!! She has four kids, so she knows it all ;)!! We were in the primary presidency together and thats how we got to know one another. With her family she moved here two years ago for her husbands job. Well this job is amazing b/c now he can work from wherever. Laura is from Idaho falls and her parents live there. Even though I am very sad to see her go I understand needing to be close to family. When I was growing up I decided I wanted to be close to family so my kids would know their grandparents and cousins (hopefully when my brother moves here). So I understand but i know it'll be hard not to go out with her to get pedi's and go out to dinner. Every once in awhile you get that friend that just gets you and she got me!! Nathan and I have talked about going to visit Rexburg b/c I have another very dear friend (who was my Roommate) who I would love to see as well. So I will see her again, hopefully many times. I just wanted to tell Laura that I will miss her very Much!! But we are going to go on a cruise next year right ;)!! I love you Laura!

Cheyenne Frontier Days

Nathan and I started a tradition last year, where we go to Cheyenne Frontier days and stay the night. We go see the rodeo then the concert that night. We had a great time. The concert we saw was Jason Aldean, he was great



This little baby is probably about 2 months old. He was so stinkin cute. His parents brought him to the concert, and for the most part did a great job. They put the gun earmuffs on him so it wouldn't be to loud. He fell asleep pretty quickly.

So even though for the most part I don't miss Rexburg there are still some things that I do miss. I was so excited when I saw a Snoasis there. I just had to get my Tigers blood snocone. It was great!





This was the rodeo. Did you know that they were giving 100,000 dollars to the winner of the calf roping??? Maybe nate should take up roping!

4th of July and fun stuff

So I know this long overdue and I don't have many pictures, sorry. BUt for the Fourth we went to Steamboat Springs with Nate's parents and two nieces. It was a lot of fun and we got to relax and enjoy the beautiful mountains. Before we went up to Steamboat we went to the Denver Zoo and saw all kinds of fun Animals. Lilly loved having two cousins to play with.

The week after we went to Elitches with my family. A good friend of our family and a Orthodontist that my dad uses was throwing a party at Elitches so we got in free and got free dinner. It started raining after we started riding the rides so we only went on two rides. Bummer. Oh well it was fun to just be there and get free food.
