Summer Fun

So far the major highlight of our summer has been relaxing and taking a break from school, which seems to be coming up pretty quickly. I am happy to announce that I have been accepted in to Phi Thetta Kappa, the national honours society for 2 year colleges. I am kind of excited to start school again because I am really hoping that I will be able to finish my associates this year!

Tomorrow we are going to Warped Tour which has become a yearly event for me so I am super excited to go. Especially since it has been awhile since I have been to a concert in awhile. One of our favourite couples, Jeff and Katie, are coming too which will make it even more fun!


So it seems almost every week that we are not camping or busy with other things we go to a movie. Our favourite movie so far this summer has been Sex and the City. Yes it was Eddy's favourite as well. So we have started buying the seasons at Costco and watching a couple episodes every night. I would definitely recommend watching the movie:) Among other movies we have seen and liked The Happening (even despite the bad reviews it received), Get Smart, Iron Man, What Happens in Vegas, and Indiana Jones IV. Tonight we are going to see WallE with Rhae and the kids, which should be fun:)

Some exciting news is Eddy has gotten a second job! He was hired on as a server at the new Red Robin. He starts training on the 7th of July. He is pretty excited for that as am I. The rest of our summer will consist of swimming, some camping, and relaxing:)

Family Fun

My Mum, sister Tressie, brother Cooper, and our family's two temporary girls came out for about two weeks beginning of June and just went home on Sunday from our family reunion. The two little girls, Courtney 2 and Navaeh 8 months, have been raised in the small town in Nebraska that my parents live in and have not had the chance to really enjoy things such as the zoo. So we took the girls to the gateway mall, the planetarium, the temple, and the zoo. It was so much fun to see how much fun these simple things were for the girls. I fell in love with Courtney and we became buddies. She came to work with me twice, had a sleep over, went shopping, and hung out the whole time. I had so much fun helping take care of the girls and playing with them. I can not wait to have my own children:) It was very hard to see my whole family go and very hard to see the girls go knowing that I may not get to see them again. I just wanted to keep them here with me!
