already?! I can't believe the Summer has already came and gone and now Fall is here! Where has the time gone?! Anyways, I see that it has been some time since I've blogged and that's just unacceptable according to my mother. (Like she doesn't know what I do with my life...Love you Mom!) But here is how rest of my summer went...

Labor Day Weekend
For Labor Day the whole family went camping at Duck Creek. You know your family is growing when not everyone can sleep in the trailer and there aren't enough 4-wheelers for everyone! Nick slept in the back of his truck, Dad was in his own tent, Steph was in her own tent, and the rest of us were in the trailer! It was nice to finally have a weekend off from work, but more so that I got to spend it with my family!

I did it... muddy and all!

Ashley and Leigh's Baby Shower
Well since BOTH of my best friends from school were having babies, only a few weeks due from the other, I decided to do a joint baby shower with the girls from high school. Our Annual VVHS Girls Get Together! It was so fun getting all the girls together and catching up on life! I was even re-confirmed of how I am good being single and not having children until I'm 30!! Thanks girls for coming, it was so good to see you!!!

Lake Powell
My sister and her family had invited me and Amy to go to Lake Powell with them. Seeing how I haven't been for years, I couldn't pass it up! We spent 4 days there and it was absolutely amazing! We had awesome weather all 4 days so there was lots for us to do...boating, tubing, skiing, fishing, cliff jumping, swimming, and just some good ole laying out on the beach!! Thanks for the fun vacation Sis!

Oh, how I love Lake Powell!
