Summer Fun!

We had such a great summer! We got to spend a month visiting our family and friends! We loved our vacation but by the end we were ready to be back home and out of a suitcase! I guess that was the trick to finally making me excited to come back to Wyoming! :) We went to panaca for the 24th of July...I wish I would've taken more pictures but here's our cute nieces and nephews at the parade! Love them!

Robert & Travis!

Sarah with her kids!

Katelyn and her candy!

                         They were loving their suckers! :)

It was a lot different going home with Brittany not there...she's loving being in Provo though!We got to see Brit on our way back home...what a cute waitress! :)  Ryan & Aimee come back from Alaska soon! Can't wait to finally be able to hang out with them!

Our trip was so much fun but now it's back to work! I got the job I wanted in Kindergarten and I'm really excited! Can't wait until November to come back to visit! :)

San Francisco...

 We absolutely loved our trip to San Fran! The weather was beautiful!  We stayed right by Union square and Chinatown.  It was fun to be close to everything and walk everywhere!  It was the perfect trip!

So this guy got so mad at me cause I took his picture without giving him money yet and kept yelling at me...oops! :)

Boudin Bakery...yummy!

On the ferry over to Alcatraz...

We of course had to ride the cable cars...

and almost ran over a car because the cable car driver wasn't looking...

This was the best picture I could get of the Golden Gate bridge, it was foggy the whole time we were there...

 Ghiardelli Square...

My absolute favorite part of San Fran was going to see Wicked! Raymond was not thrilled at all to spend almost three hours in a play but he ended up loving it!

Thanks babe for the wonderful "honeymoon"!

Visitors!!

We finally had people come up and visit us and we had such a great time having family here! Raymond's parents came first and we took them to Sinks Canyon, the Shoshone days Pow Wow, and Martin's Cove.  Raymond has ancestors on both sides that came across so it was very special for his parents to be there. 

Love this picture with Raymond and his mom!

My parents and Kelsey came the next weekend for the 4th of July.  There's a Pioneer Museum in Lander that has some really neat stuff and Kels was having a blast! She didn't like the drive here too much though! She told us the only way she'd come and visit again was if we had a baby or got a horse! Ha!

We had a picnic up sinks canyon, it was such a beautiful day!

I didn't get any pictures really of the 4th but it was seriouslly the best 4th of July we've been to! One of the local dentists who's a member puts on a huge firework show put to music and tells the story of our founding fathers and it really put things in perspective for us of why we really celebrate.  We are truly blessed to live in this free country and I'm so grateful for those people who sacrificed so much for our freedom!

We always love people coming to visit! Any takers?? :)
