Latest...

I won't make this a super long post about having the opportunity of going to the Twin Falls temple open house since almost everyone I know in Idaho has already been but it was a neat experience and it was so nice having at least half of my family there. We also celebrated my neice's (Kira) birthday after and went to a park and had good food and cake! The following weekend we went to Idaho again for good ole fair week! I love fair and you know you'll probably see almost everyone you know there. It was fun and it was good to see some old friends and catch up with them. I didn't take any pictures from fair because usually if you've been once you know what its like and it doesn't change much from year to year! Now we are just getting ready for school to start...for Nick that is! It is going to be very weird for me not interacting with students and people my age all day. I have been going to school all my life and it will definitely be an adjustment! Nick keeps telling me I need to get a hobby so I'll have something to do while he has to do homework..So if you have any suggestions for a new hobby let me know!! (NOT SCRAPBOOKING..its just not my thing, not creative enough)



Girls only picture! Grandma, Mom holding Kira, Ericka, Lora, Me!
Caleb enjoyed Kiras birthday just as much as she did!! He had some fun with those party hats!

Oklahoma!

Well, I had the opportunity to go visit my sister and her kids in Oklahoma this past week. It was so fun to see her and her kids. I loved just being able to sit and talk with her. I hadn't see them since my wedding and it was so fun to play with the kids. They are amazing! Layla is all girl and loves to play dress up and house! Dillon is the most optimistic, energized, crazy kid. He is always trying to make sure everyone is happy. I can't believe how well mannered these kids are. They were always saying thank you to everything and please to everything. We went garage sale shopping one day and Lu bought a toy gun that was 50 cents and Dillon loved it and was so appreciative for it! I still am so amazed at how grown up they act! The humidity was definitely a new experience for me and I have to admit I am not a fan! Luckily we were in the pool the majority of the time. I had such a great time and wish we lived closer to each other so we could play more! I am glad to be back in the dry land and to see Nick. I am so glad I was able to spend some time with my sister. Thanks Lu and Doug!!
