Scrappin' in the mountains!

Sadly, I do not have a picture for this post.....BUT I am still going to tell you about my fun weekend!

A friend in my ward, Julie, got together a group of girls from my ward and a few other girls...we went to the mountains to a scrapbooking cabin for 3 fun-filled days. With a little luck (meaning that Scott was able to take Friday off from work)...my friend Heather (and her friend Brittani) and I packed all our stuff (and it was a lot of stuff) into my car and we were off at 10am.

It was 3 days full of scrapping, watching chick flicks, talking, laughing, a little sleeping and DELICIOUS food. It was a great time, I accomplished a lot, but more importantly, I got to know and develop deeper friendships with some girls that I call my friends.

Everyone wants to make it a yearly tradition. That would be fun!

We are alive.....

We have been having a busy fun filled summer....and blogging has just been on the back burner. But, I thought I would just post a couple pictures to let you know that we are alive...just having fun!

4th of July Swim Party & BBQ with a great fireworks show...

Grandma Judi made this beautiful quilt....there really are no words to just explain how amazing it really is. The detail is stunning.

We came home from Ohio and Grandma Judi came home with us....ON THE AIRPLANE! Noah was super excited about that. We had a fun time in Ohio, it was quite a whirlwind trip. Scott & Judi attended the National Hosta Convention (yes there is a convention about Hosta). While they were in Michigan for the convention, Noah & I stayed and played with my sister Stephanie and her 3 girls. Her hubby & son were away at scout camp.

We had fun in Grandma Judi's beautiful yard....isn't it stunning?? And this is only 1 side!!

Noah got to do his "job"...feeding Gran's fish......

and tried to play with Sassy....as much as she will let him!

We also got to catch fireflies....it was so cute to see how excited Noah got about this. It turned into a nightly event.

We had a special treat of HANDEL's ice cream with our dear friends....

Noah loves flying and the airport is also so cool for him, watching the planes landing & taking off.

We also attended the San Diego County Fair. Scott had an exhibit at the fair and his company supplied them with a majority of the flowers they had on display. He was given a LOT of tickets for the fair. So we packed up and headed to the fair with some family and friends. We had a great day, a very LONG day, but a great day none the less.
