Summer Preview

Well we are back to real life and certainly had a doozy of a summer - we packed in family, friends and fun all around us. Unfortunately, I am still using my broken camera as an excuse for not documenting our lives very well, so the following is a just the start of our summer activities using photos from Ryan's beloved phone and poached from other people's blogs.

My silly sister had this fantastic idea to start our summer off with a bang by doing the Cache Valley Classic Triathalon.
It was so much fun, I'd like to emphasize the word fun - please don't confuse it with the word fast and just so you aren't too impressed with our "athleticism" please notice...

the race was secondary to the conversation...
the long strides as we cross the finish line before the 2 people behind us (not to mention after the hundreds before us).
But let's be honest - we did have a lot of fun!

In other news, this summer we also learned that Bel loves...
corn,
trampolines,
playing soccer with dad,
and we think she's pretty cute.

I can't believe how big B is. Seriously she is ador-ABLE! I need to call you and ask you some questions!! Hope you are doing well and I can't wait to start planning our girls retreat. Do you want to come out in September for fun? Jen is. You should jump on that bandwagon!!
