Balloon Girl!

 What to do with left over shower balloons??? Have some fun with this cute girl!

Kristina's shower

My dear friend Kristina is having her 4th baby- A GIRL! After 3 cute boys!  Gemmie and I had a fun time throwing her a baby shower!

 Kel and Aubs came too and gave Baby Aurora her first set of legos- (this family has a million legos)

Great ladies! 

Baby birds

We had such a great time watching this bird family from start to finish!  They nested in the trees in the back and we had a perfect view of the nest- It was amazing to watch them!

Park City

Our friends the Stewarts invited us up to Park City to play and stay overnight at their time share-- It was Ry's actual B-Day so we had a big Indian dinner and watched movies and then went swimming-- All in one night!  It was a blast! We slept over and the guys went to work and we stayed, ate and swam some more! What fun-

Aubrey's party

For Aubrey's friend party we had a Dispicable Me party- 

 Instead of cake, I made Minion cupcakes! They were a hit and so easy!

(just cute a twinkie in half and decorate with black frosting and smarties)

 we watched the movie and had treats in the gym

Father's Day/Birthday

This is always such a fun weekend every year for us to celebrate! Aubrey has a B-Day the 16th, Ry - The 18th and then Father's Day!  We had everyone over for a little Backyard BBQ and celebrated it all!

Two of the favorite men in my life! 

So blessed to have this great man in my life for almost 38 years! Love you so much Dad!

Some more great men! Love Ry's brothers and Dad!

and a great Mom too! And we didn't even plan on matching so well!

Happy B-Day to our June B-Days!

 Dark chocolate ganache cake!

She likes it

always a goof!

nothing like Summer nights!

Darlene's funeral

 My sweet Aunt Darlene (Mom's sister) was diagnosed one month ago with pancreatic cancer and passed away 4 weeks later. She was truly and "elect lady" and will be sorely missed! But on the lighter side, the two soul sisters, are joined at the hip again and I'm sure it was a sweet reunion in heaven! I am so grateful for the knowledge that family is FOREVER and that it will be but a small moment until we are together again-

Some of my favorite people on earth! Julie and Alison are such dear cousins and I love them so much!

A great day to be with family

RAGNAR!

What an experience it was to run RAGNAR this year! 12 people, running in the mountains and back roads, for 2 days, with little sleep, and lots of crazy times!  It was a great experience though and so glad I did it! 

My sweet Aunt Darlene passed away the same week and thank heavens for some juggling and a friend coming to run my last leg, I was able to do both the race and get to the funeral. 

Our whole team (minus Craig who was running his leg)

I ran my second leg on a mountain trail up in those trees!  It was quite the experience!

 The team van support

Took a little time to go eat at Taggert's for dinner-- A VERY yummy place but not a good idea to go against my gut feeling to not eat a big dinner before a 7 mile night run. :-/  

Beautiful East Lake

Getting our night gear on and looney times already begin!

I made it through my run! Barely-- My stomach was not feeling good! Ry drove up to Morgan at midnight to get me. We got home at 1 am and I soaked in a hot tub for an hour and then hit the hay- The next morning was the funeral and I was so grateful I was able to do both.

ROCKWELL

Our good friends the Stewarts asked me to do the photography for the Rockwell 

bike relay- Moab to St. George-- He is the founder of it and this is his cute wife Mel and one 

of my dear friends!  We both got to drive around and do the photography and our cute girls are buddies and got to come along too! It was a great trip and so much fun!

 Yippy skippy!

 Our cool watches!

The girls with two riders they became friends with along the way!

and Ry and the kids were at the finish line to greet us and we had a fun rest of our weekend in St. George!

 keeping cool!

A great guy who we helped along the way -- He was totally exhausted and needed water and to rehydrate! Fun to see him finish!
