The Summer

I haven't been very good at blogging lately as we've been so busy. We had such a fun-filled and busy summer this year. I'm sorry for the lack of pictures in this post.  Here is some of what we did:

Participated in the Provo Library's Reading Program
James' 3rd Birthday Party
Took a trip to California to move my Grandma to Utah
Went Swimming and went to the splashpads
Had lots of BBQ's
Campout in Spanish Fork
Spent time with friends and family
James got his first (hopefully last?) stitches
Said good-bye to some dear friends
Watched lots of fireworks (from our apartment complex...you can go ahead and be jealous now)
Helped a lot of people move
Drive-in Movies
Went Day Camping
City Summer Festivities
Went to the Brigham City temple open house
Oh, and I've lost 22 pounds. I wish I could say that that was all I had to lose, but I'll probably be on this diet until March.

It was a really great summer and we had so much fun, but we are really excited for Fall, Paul graduating, moving on to a new job (and possibly a new state!), and of course, Christmas.  It's pretty stressful right now with so many different things in the works with job hunting and trying to come up with ideas for Christmas, but we are VERY excited to be done with school. It's been an extraordinarily long journey.
