Well today was the last day of school for the girls. It's a short summer they have to go back to school July 27th this. I'm sure by then they will be bored out of there minds and want to go back ( they always do) Well we have swimming lessons starting next week and summer movie fun that started last week so we will keep cool and have a good time doing it

Well We went camping over the weekend just outside of Payson AZ. we found a spot that had a little creek right next to it. We got there late Saturday and returned late Monday(yes the girls missed a day of school for this) We had a great time just spending time together as a family.

This is of the girls outside the tent.

The girls fishing nobody caught anything except Casey but it was so small we had to let it go.

This is Shyla sitting on a rock she had to go through the river to get to the other side to get to this rock.

This is Sammie on the hammock she had a lot of fun with this this weekend. Casey tied her up in it (so she wouldn't fall out) And used it like a big lay down swing she was going so high that it started to flip over

Wow where has this year gone I have so many things that have gone on but i have not been able to get to the computer

!st Shyla broke her arm when she was walking the dog and had a beautiful blue with gold sparkle canst the whole spring break this was a fun break that took many trips to a specialist to make sure it healed right and that all was good she is very glad to have the smelly cast off now that it is getting warm and we can go swimming.

Sammie had the opportunity to go to a eight is great dinner and learn all about what it means to be baptized

We got are house loan done

I got recalled to be the Young Women's secretary for the third time (maybe this is the time i will get it right) and i am loving this calling

well i ran out of time again have to run hope to fill in more next time

Love what is love? as i try to look at things through the eyes of people around me i realize how much of the time we miss interpret what is relay is happening. This is my goal for this month moving forward.

Well this last month it seams that the days just flew away from us. we live such a routine life sometimes that we need to take time to smell the roses

Merry christmas and a Happy New Year

Well its hard to think that it is the end of the year already. Time just fly's by with out even noticing it weeks if not even months have gone by. Well we had a great Christmas here in sunny but cold chandler AZ. Everyone was so spoiled this year. On Christmas eve while i was working Casey has worked out with my boss and everyone at work to keep me at work all day even though i was suppose to get off at 10 am because it was my day off and i was just helping out. I was getting ready to leave when my boss came over and told me that the needed me to stay and that if i went home I would be coached, so of course i stayed but i was not happy about it not happy at all i didn't even go to are soft lines lunch potluck because i was so mad. At 4:30 i finally told them i had to leave and i didn't care because i had been there sense 6 am. As i was picking up the last few items i needed for Christmas Casey called and told me not to come home to go grocery shopping before the stores closed so not wanting to stay at walmart i went to Fry's and was there for ever because everyone was shopping before the stores closed so i finally got home around 6:30 pm. Casey came out and told me my Christmas present was delivered early and to go take a look. He had bought and installed an brand new stainless steel dishwasher for me for Christmas. he then told me that everyone at work was in on it and he had asked for there help keeping me there so he could get it all installed,
