Father's Day and a trip to Zion's

We just celebrated Father's Day and we are grateful for our fathers and all that they have done for us in our lives. Happy Father's Day to our dads! :)

We were able to have Mark, Emily and Scott at our place for Father's Day. We shared an amazing experience at Zion. We were very fortunate to go on a free entrance weekend. Megan and I had never been to Zion, so it was awesome to see some of the amazing scenery the park has to offer. We took the short little hike to Weeping Rock. It was amazing to see water coming out that took about 1,000 years to reach the surface through an underground water source. We made barbecue hamburgers for dinner when we got home. They were so big that it was hard to take bites! Megan and I both played hooky from work on Monday. We went to a japanese place called Ninja for lunch. It was really good. We spent a few hours of the afternoon at Park Discovery. Scott was really funny as he tried to eat a ladybug that kept crawling up his arm. He also didn't like his legs touching the grass, so he kept crawling bear-style. We were grateful to be able to spend quality time with Mark, Emily and Scott. Thanks for coming down to visit!

Sylvia's Blessing


Our niece Sylvia was blessed on June 7. It was so amazing to see everyone and to spend time with them. Sylvia looked so pretty in her white dress and Braden and Carter were as cute as ever.

We were able to spend the night with Brent's sister Karen and her great fiance Ryan. It was so nice to get to know them better and to a lot of time just hanging out. Ryan is such a nice guy and I am so glad he is part of the family!

We had such a wonderful time. Below are some pictures.

An Anniversary


Yesterday we celebrated our 3 year Anniversary of being sealed in the temple. We are so grateful for this blessing in our lives. We are so glad that we can be an eternal family - not just until death. That we have the opportunity each year to celebrate this huge blessing. Brent & I are so happy together and we are more in love then we ever have been. We have grown so much. I am so lucky to be with my best friend everyday! It is amazing to know of the possibilities we have for growth as companions.

For our Anniversary we went to St. George to go to the temple and do sealings. This is a tradition we have done every year. It is so wonderful inside the temple, there is such peace! Being dressed all in white and kneeling across from your eternal companion is the best feeling in the world! The spirit was so strong and I was remembering so vividly the day we went to be sealed. It is nice to hear the blessings that are promised to us if we are faithful to the covenants that we have made.

After the temple we went out to eat at the Olive Garden. It was so yummy and fun. It was a great Anniversary and I can't wait to celebrate it again!!!

I love you Brent!!

Memorial Weekend & the Parowan Gap

For Memorial weekend we were able to visit lots of family! After Cam's graduation, Brent & I went up Fairview Canyon to his families cabin. It was so nice to see everyone and just relax. We also got to see our new niece for the first time. She is such a cutie!! We played games and visited with each other to catch up on current events.

When the weekend was over, we took Cameron back to Cedar City with us to spend the week. We didn't do much but it was so nice to see him and spend more time with him. For our family home evening we took a trip to Parowan to see some petroglyphs. It was really cool and we enjoyed learning about ancestors and family. Below are a bunch of pictures we took.

My family came down on Saturday to pick Cam up. It was so nice to have my whole family down. Here are some pictures of everyone in 3-D glasses as they watched Journey to the Center of the Earth.

Enjoy...

Graduation

To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe.

My little brother Cameron graduated from Manti High School on May 22. It is so weird to think of him being that old! Congrats Cam on this big step. We love you so much and know that you will do great in life and all that you do. Just remember to always believe in your dreams and fight to achieve them.

Life will give you what you are willing to take. Don't allow yourself to settle in life. Fight for the dreams that you have and never lose sight of your potential!
