Strawberry with Friends & NO MORE WORK!


Well I am a week behind but I wanna update on my last few days in AZ before I took off for the summer, then I'll update you on the travel to Belize thus far.

SO Brett Skinner was so kind to take a bunch of crazies up to his cabin in Strawberry for the weekend and it was a BLAST! We got there Friday night & saw Iron Man 3 in the Payson theatre. Then we all played games and partied up and told scary stories, and stayed up til like 5:00am. Yikes. Saturday we wanted to drive down to fossil springs NOT Hike. But we got down there and the road was closed. So plan B you might wonder? Tanning on the grass, playing volleyball, football and ultimate frisbee. Yes you read the first one right we tanned in Strawberry. Talk about perfect weather. Oh and Kaitlyn & Sadee Jo spent like 30 minutes peeling



layer after layer of skin off Cam's back. He had enough skin to make a blanket it was unreal! Never witnessed that much skin come off a human being! So night festivities were more games, dancing, being goofy, and we created a circle of friends and had
a blanket big enough to cover us all and it was a real special bonding moment under the community blanket ;)

Sunday we went to church and a huge inside joke that developed was London bore her testimony and mentioned that she was going on a mission and the ward member who said the closing prayer, prayed for London that she would have success and be safe. So of course the boys turned that out of proportion and gave her heat for getting the ward to pray for her, so the rest of the trip we kept joking about, "making sure to pray for London". Good laughs I tell ya. Then we did some more sports and made friendship bracelets, and spent endless hours on the most amazing swing ever! Its tied to a tree and swings in all sorts of directions and then we got creative and put another saddle higher up, and then had two people on the saddles then Hailee climbed up top and sat on the bar. We had a 3-person high swing going! It was awesome! After that it was time to go home unfortunately! It was a super awesome trip with lots of fun memories made!

After that it was down to the last wire for school! My last semester of CLASSES!! I couldn't believe it! This semester was super easy too! Not what I imagined my last semester would be like. So I came out on top with 2 A+ 3 A's and 1 B best semester yet! Holla. It was also my last week working for ACE and Nations Group! It was so sad saying goodbye. I loved working with all of them so much and having them bless my life. Its amazing. Its so weird to be done with that chapter of my life because thats all I have ever known. School and work have been my life for the past 16 years! It's a little nerve racking thinking about being treated more like an adult and not having the flexible schedule to do whatever I want. It will definitely be a hard adjustment, but I am just grateful for the wonderful life and experiences I have had so far and wouldn't trade any of it for anything. The couple days I had off were amazing and it was great going to the lake twice and running errands and catching up with old friends! I could really get used to being a stay at home student. Anyways I am in Belize now and will start a new post about it ;) 

Ciao

September First Camping Trip with Myla

Image
  Started out with Labor Day and Lucas had it off so Micah joined us on a bike ride. We we’re still watching the Millett’s so we had Jane sleep over so she could watch Myla while we rode. Then we had breakfast and hung out there and then had all the cousins over for a swim party to celebrate Alli & Jacobs birthday. Myla started developing a rash around her eyes and mouth that seems to be caused from heat. It flares up in the car and after naps. So hopefully it will go away soon. We had Sunday dinner with my family and the boys had fun laughing Myla around In a box. This week I filmed Traci Beagley and her breast cancer journey and it was very powerful and I’m glad I was able to be apart of bringing awareness to so many. I just had another afternoon with the Millett’s. Next I went to the library with Tayzia for baby Olympics.  Then that night we went to the ASU game with the Packard’s and Trennon & Cari Anne. We got shaved ice that smelt like gasoline so that wa...

Now What?

This past month has been different and not quite what I was expecting. This whole semester I had been working hard for ADI and with the hope that they would hire me on after the internship was over. They had been telling me multiple times that they love me and are trying to get a position open to keep me here for good. Having that said I was kind of banking of getting hired post graduation. Well a couple weeks ago Sue took me to lunch to inform me that they actually do not have a position available because Hotel Site Select has not taken off as fast as they were hoping and they will not have the money to pay me. I was pretty upset and sad because I really LOVE this business, and the other employees are so good to me, and I was already making my future plans to be with them. That lunch meeting was not the happiest, and I was pretty down the next week or so. Many thoughts began to run through my head about being jobless, and how am I going to pay off my loans, and where should I apply no...

October Beginning of Holidays

Image
First day of the month and we had the Bodine ladies over for sister lunch which was really refreshing since we had been home all week not feeling good. It was a good time like always, I’m glad to have them as my sister in laws! Friday we did pickleball with the Skousen’s, Packard’s, and Standage’s for date night and it was super fun to be active and have a group date night! Saturday I had a Romanian Pentecostal wedding that was from 8:30am-7:30pm. It was looong but fairly easy since there is a lot of driving to different locations. It was also conference so I listened to a little bit during the drives. Sunday we started potty training... again. We woke up and “threw” the diapers away and made Myla say goodbye to them and she gladly did. Then we put on underwear and told her to tell us every time she has to go. She had about 7 accidents that day which is normal cause I was pumping her with water & juice all day to make her pee more. It was really nice to have Lucas here on day 1 bec...
