Where does time go?

I haven't blogged forever so I'm going to just give a update of the summer and what I'm up to.
First, Summer trips: We went to Bear Lake twice to boat and visit family. Mostly boat!! I love boating and it was fun. We stayed with Dad some of the time, but then went to the lake on the south end and stayed at my friend, Chari's family cabin. It was nice to stay right on the lake. I've never done that because we lived there why stay over night and all that. It was different and way fun. We went with a group of friends that time and Connelly played until he was too tired to walk. We went camping just locally twice and that is always fun. I like just camping close so that you don't spend most of your time traveling. We went up big cottonwood and american fork canyons.
We did take a trip to Las Vegas twice. Once to move our friends, the Smallmans, and then the second time for school. I had a conference to go to for school in Las Vegas so fortunately we got to visit the Smallmans again and go to the conference. One our way to the conference we took a detour to Manti, UTah to go to the Temple with Nate's cousin, Luke. He was able to go to the temple and be sealed to his cute family. That was very special and started our trip out on the right foot. I wish every trip could start that way. We got a long much better. After that conference trip, pretty much we did nothing, because I started studying for my physics boards. I studied everyday for four hours for five weeks. It totally paid off because I passed my physics test with a 91% the first time. It was the best feeling.
I'm in my last semester at school. I graduate Dec. 4th is the official date and so I am seeking employement. I put my application in to the hospital, LDS, where I'm currently do my clinicals and I am hoping for an interview in the next week or so. I feel confident that I just passed my physics test and also that I've been interning there for the past year. I pretty do the just right now as it is.
Nate and I are doing better. Connelly is too cute. Dallynn is growing up. He got in a 4wheeler accident the other week. He was wearing a helmet, luckily and so he just got a few dings.
I"ve been canning Tomatoes all day and I am ready for a break. I think to myself, "WHy am I doing this?" tomatoe sauce is cheap and I'm spending the day canning it!! That is crazy." But what I won't do to save a penny or two. My sister met me at the airport today with two huge boxes of tomatoes from her garden. She lives about 1 1/2 hours away and so the airport was a good meeting place since she was going to HAWAII. I hate her!! Just kidding, I'm just extremely jealous of her.


Connelly is cuter than ever. He is so fun. He is talking and doing everything. He helps with the chores and is so polite. I don't know how I got him. I am so blessed.

Remind me again what you are graduating in? That's awesome you're almost done. I too am jealous of said sister. I emailed Dan and commented how it must be rough to be out of the country so much and then I remembered he and Holly were going to Hawaii and I told him never mind, I don't feel sorry for you!

Found a home

Bell has found a new home. After I put her up for FREE on ksl.com, I got a ton of calls. The first little old lady that came to look at her snatched her right up. I was really surprised because Bell snapped at her right off, but I guess things are going well now. The lady called me later in the day, and said, "thank you, thank you. Bell is the dog I've waited for my whole life." She said that Bell just followed her around all day and the neighborhood kids love her. I'm so relieved.

Just hang'n with my BOY

Connelly has been so fun now that he is potty trained. Yes you heart me, HE IS POTTY TRAINED. Not one accident in two weeks. He will even tell me when he has to go when he is busy playing. I know this is abnormal and I'm very fortunate. I ran upon these picks from this summer and just thought how cute they were. We went to Cherry Hill resort in Kaysville this summer and had a lot of fun.

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...
