Relief Society Temple Trip


I had the opportunity to go on a temple trip with some of the sisters from my ward. We had a great time being together. We were able to go through the Oquirrh Mountain Temple before the dedication which was gorgeous. Our lunch trip to Olive Garden was a hoot. Then on to the Draper Temple to do a session before we headed home. We had an awesome time and I really got to know some of the sisters in my ward alot better.

Fourth of July- My favorite time of year!!!



Everyone is looking good in their traditional flag shirt for the fourth. Torrey had to work the morning of the fourth but was able to get off early.


We then headed down to Utah for the Bee's baseball game which had always been fun for us as a family to go to when we lived in Utah. Lots of good ballpark food. Hotdogs, popcorn, pretzels, nachoes, pizza. I think with the seven of us, we got a little of all of that. After the game, we met up with some good friends of ours and watched the fireworks together. Their fireworks are amazing!! We had a fun night.

Our Summer Summary...

Summer has just flown right on by for us. As I am sure all of you would say the same. School starts next week for us, on Monday and this week has been full of decluttering. Torrey and I's closet alone took a full day and two big garbage bags later. I don't know why we hang on to stuff the way we do but it feels so good to just let it go. Yesterday Hannah and I spent all day in her room. Her closet was a mess. Everytime I would ask her to go pick up her room, well quess where it all went, YEP! you guessed it, right in the closet. I sure hope it doesn't get that way again but I believe that I have said those words before and I believe that it was at the beginning of the summer. Graci's room got the decluttering magic last night, the kitchen this morning and the bathroom is next, but I had to have a break. Life is good again when we are clutter free.... Now it is time to catch up on the blog and will probably be posting backwards, not sure how it will work but I will figure it out, meanwhile, I hope everyone has a great day. Take care
