It is has been a crazy summer and tons has happened since my last post. With summer comes all of my great loves, Lake Powell, 4th of July, and my birthday.
My whole family (except Minde, Ty and Chase which we missed very much) went to Lake Powell at the end of June. Lake Powell for me is the perfect vacation. We had a houseboat, two ski boats, and 4 wave runners down there. It was such a blast! It was Spencer's first time down and a transformation happened in him he wants a boat! He can't stop talking about buying a boat. This is a big step since on one of our first dates he told me he wanted to drain Lake Powell (he was a bit hippish back then
, thank goodness I straightened him out). Spencer wakeboarded, kneeboarded and he even got up on a single ski, impressive! I did everything above except I don't wakeboard I wakeskate! My family even hiked Rainbow 
Bridge, we haven't done this for years so it was good to make sure that it was still standing! Here are some of our pictures from our awesome time down there! On the right you have Spencer and I at Rainbow Bridge and on the left is Spencer skiing! The bottom picture is all of us girls skiing. We have a tradition that we get all the sisters and my mom out there to get up. We have done it with 5 girls but the last couple of years it has just been 4. It only took us three pulls to get it us all up!

The 4th of July is always a good time and it is all about traditions with my family. 
We go to the Provo Freedom parade in the morning and then to my parents house for a bbq and a homemade slip-n-slide. My family went to the Stadium of Fire and Spencer and I headed up to the Kaysville to chill with his family and to have a bbq and watch the Kaysville fireworks, who doesn't love fireworks. I just love the 4th of July.

The next weekend was my birthday and Spencer and I celebrated by going to Zions and hiking the narrows and going to one of the Shakespeare plays in Cedar City, The Taming of the Shrew. The play was really well done and pretty funny and
we always love hiking the narrows it is so beautiful down there. I was a little nervous about flash floods, but I made sure that I could get to high ground if one did happen to come :). It was such a good time to get away with just Spencer it was just what we needed!

I am so excited neither of us have been there so it should be tons of fun. After that trip I believe our summer is winding down.
