Summer Reading

I finished my last final for my last summer class today!! hoorrraayyy!!

Now I can continue my summer reading list..

I just finished a super good book that I want to share with the world, it is called The Anatomy of Peace Resolving the Heart of Conflict

This book is probably my favorite read of the summer thus far. It was very educational but it didn't feel like I was reading a text book. This book was so relevant to my life right now and I honestly think it was divine intervention that lead it into my hands.

"when you begin to see others as people, issues related to race, ethnicity, religion and so on begin to look and feel different. You end up seeing people who have hopes, dreams, fears, and even justifications that resemble your own."

Because of this book, my heart that was at war is now at peace. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to read this book. I now own it so if you want to borrow it, give me a call.

Summer Lovin'

I love Summer. I love sunshine, and swimming and I LOVE when my freckles come out. Dallin and I have been doing some fun things I thought I'd share...




 Dallin and I had a random day off so we took off and headed up for a day playing at the lake. Scout had a blast and Dallin looks like a lobster. so, so red!

One of my sweet primary kids dropped this off to me on Sunday. Yummy





The Fourth of July has always been my favorite holiday. We had an awesome day. I ran the Murray 5k and then we watched the parade with our families, then we went to breakfast! After breakfast Dallin and I went home and took a nap, watched some soccer, went shopping and ate dinner. We watched fireworks at Murray park with friends and family and then ended the night with some board games. It was a wonderful day!



I got to go to the zoo with my favorite little ones, Cooper and Dez! The seals were my favorite. 

Dallin and I waiting for the drive in movie to start :)

Dallin and I made plans with friends to go up to the mountains and have a fire, we drove up Cottonwood Canyon only to be told all the camp stations were going to close in an hour. So I called up my parents and they let us come over and have a fire in their backyard. It all worked out perfectly. 

Siri is so mature.

In May Dallins sister's family took us with them to Las Vegas.
