Summer!!

My friend invited us to the zoo before her zoo pass expired! Little did we her pass included us being able to ride the carrousel AND the train, something we don't pay for when we get our free passes a few times a year! We loved it. 

We finally have a working lawn mower! 

Austin had his last soccer game!

Mathew stopped by on his birthday. 

Camping! Months ago, I blocked off Memorial Day week for a family camping trip. Now I want to start every summer with a family camping trip. Being in nature is good for all of us. 

Aaron found us the best spot and we were the only ones there. We were talking around the campfire and hear coyotes and decided to call it a night and get quickly into our tent ha. On Saturday mooring, Aaron and Eli went camping while the rest of us read books, wrote in our journals and played in nature. 

The flowers around the temple are so beautiful!

The kids decided to sell snow cones on Memorial Day. Our neighbors are so nice and support these kids! 

More worlds of fun trips!

I have a new calling (more on that later), but I did know that there would be fireworks at the temple for a single adult conference. I loved seeing the fireworks and the temple together! 

Aaron's work hosted a family day. Face painting is always the highlight! We stopped by Costco on the way home from the party. Austin was hesitant to go inside with his face paint, but I promised him we'd be quick. We ended up running into several church friends so we had a good laugh about it!

The girls are tall enough to ride Viking Voyager. It's my favorite ride! I'm grateful my friend snapped these pictures for us!
