SUMMER FUN

I've posted a link to some pictures we took over the summer. Not all but some.

For the 4th of July weekend we went camping with my mom up Little Cottonwood Canyon at Tanners Flat. We saw Riley one night but he had to work the rest of the time. Jake came up after work and had to get up and go back to work again. I enjoyed spending some quality time with my mom! We also ventured down to Sugarhouse park to watch 4th of July fireworks :)

In August, we headed up to Colorado for another camp out in Estes Park. Jake's family has a reunion every year. I finally got to meet his oldest brother Mike and his family that live in Kansas. It was fun to have the whole family together.

We also got the chance to see rednecks at their finest. We went to a demolition derby with Grandma and Grandpa Read in Heber. It's been awhile since I've been to one but they are a riot. Those people are somethin else...Oh and we missed Jake dearly he had to work

Getting Settled

I realize I have not blogged for over a month. I tell myself I have so much time to, but it seems lately it's either update my blog or sleep and I opt for the second. I keep getting told to update my blog. I won't name names but Aunt Ann this is for you :) Love ya! Hope I can provide you with a little entertainment for a least a few minutes.


Jake and I have been moving stuff into our new condo, cleaning, and fixing little things as they come to our attention. Jake and his Dad spent a day replacing all the light switches and outlets. They look so much better! Thanks guys for all your hard work! I just have to add...as we are getting more comfortable in our new little house we have realized that the family that lived there before did not know how to paint and struggled with concepts of cleaning as well. To avoid a tangent, I will just say I have spent a considerable amount of time repainting and hours upon hours just scrubbing the grout and tile. What we thought was a dark gray grout is actually a light tan ish sand color. Weird how dirt can do that! I didn't think I was a "clean freak" but compared to our predecessors I definitely feel the part.
