June 30th - July 6th
Dear Diary,
What a wonderful week!
My little sisters are BACK. How exciting is this? Monday night I got to go pick up my sisters from my mom and we went to play up in Daybreak! Dang, they have grown up so much! I haven't seen them since Christmas. I'm amazed at how much they grow up in 6 months and how different they look. Elizabeth is tall and so skinny, and Lauren is 8 going on 16. We walked around Daybreak lake, played at a park and in the sand and water. Here are the beauties!
The rest of this week was good as well! I'm kind of playing catch up at the moment, so I'm trying to remember what happened each day!
Wednesday night I drove up to a cabin in Park City to meet up with my family. We had dinner, played games, watched Les Miserables. Oh, my grandpa ordained Joshua a Priest. That was pretty cool. I really wished my dad was there though.... It makes me sad that he isn't worthy to do that right now. I just really have been missing him lately. And I just feel sad that he is all by himself. Things are a bit awkward. I'm glad everyone in his family is still very accepting of my mother and that they care about her so much to be there for her still. They have been pretty wonderful.
I had a fun talk with my grandpa that night while watching Les Mis. He was telling me stories about when he was a teenager, and how he would take care of their families ranch all summer. He said he would stay there all week and then his family would come visit on the weekends. He told this funny story about how there was a snake in the shed and how his sisters were screamin' and he came to save them! Or sometimes a cow would go off, and he would have to go search for him and sometimes campout over night until he found them. I really enjoyed hearing about his life growing up! He was a cute cowboy! I love grandpa :)
Well, Thursday some of us when down into Park City to the Outlets. Jordan and I bought a couple things at Banana Republic that were incredibly on sale! We hung out and chatted more up at the Cabin until we took Family Pictures, and then I left. I drove down to South Jordan to meet up with Nicole and Heather for the Bee's game. I'm starting to think Baseball is interesting. Crazy huh? Well, the game was good, and when it got over there were FIREWORKS :) They had some pretty good ones too.
Well, Crazy thing. This weekend there was an insane amount of Rain, so Friday night when Bryans family got back from their cabin, there was a flood into their basement. They had to fix that all night:/ Anyway, Saturday night was rainy as well, but Bryan came to pick me up so that we could go to the Riverton Demolition Derby! Derbys are so much fun to watch. I think Bryan actually liked it! His family was able to join us later and we all had lots of fun!
When the Derby was finished, we had this crazy idea to go to a drive in afterwards, so Bryan, Jake, Sam, Erika and I went to the Drive in theatre to watch Monster University! Ah it was SO funny. Seriously, one of the best sequels I have ever seen. Most of them aren't as good, but this one may have been better than the first movie. Trying to get comfortable in the back of that car was interesting ha. Thankfully we finally got a bit comfortable! I kind of really love this family. All of Bryan's siblings are super funny and they each have such great personalities.
So funny story, after the movie I of course wanted a picture. So, we got a group picture and then I needed a picture of Bryan and I. Well, little boy Bryan could not keep his eyes open to save his life. Every time the camera flashed, his eyes shut. The poor kids eyes got so red, but I of course made him suffer through. So, this is probably the best picture I have ever seen.
Well! That is all for now. Life is so good. I can't believe this boy is home still. I'm amazed at how much I love him. He's definitely my very best friend.
