Surprise, Party!

Two weekends ago we went to Manti to go through the temple with Nick for the first time and then headed to Delta for a fun getaway. As always it was fun to spend time with family. On the last day we were there Tim's family threw me a suprise graduation party. I actually graduated a year and a half ago but it was the same time that I had Emery so the attention was on Emerys' arrival (which I wouldn't have any other way). So they threw me a party now. What sweet in-laws I have. They have always been a great support to us. We feel very blessed to have two sets of great parents. Just wanted to say thank you to them for who they are, what they do for us, and for everything!

Here is a video of Emery playing in the water while we were there. Almost every day we were there we tried to see if she would play in the water. She got a little braver each day and finally started running through it, as you can see.

More Adventures

We had another great adventure this last weekend. My mom and dad were going to see Chris and Jodi (my sister) and had room so they picked us up on the way. What a great time!

St. George Adventure

I am finally catching up on our blog page. Blogging is kind of funny that way. When I have lots of time to blog there is nothing to blog about, but when I am busy doing fun things and don't have time to blog, I have tons of things to blog. So now that I am in a lull, I can catch up on some of our fun summer.

A little more than a week ago Tim's family came South. They spent the night at our house and the next day we headed to St. George so they could pick up Sadie for the week (Brett and Jennie went on a Cruise) and shop for Nicks mission. We had a great time on the swing again.

We went to the visitors center at the temple and saw the sculptures they have there. That was amazing to see. It made me want to create something with meaning or story. Emery enjoyed walking around the temple grounds the best though. It was a beautiful day.

When we were done shopping with Nick we went swimming. This was Emery's first time at the pool and as you can see, she did not spend much time in the water. She was pretty scared of it so we did not swim very long. It was still fun watching her play on the deck in her cute swimming suit though. We will take this swimming thing one step at a time and she will hopefully LOVE it some day.

The Mighty Climbers!

Wow, we have had a very fun last week with school being out. IT'S SUMMER (for us)!!!!! It started out with Monday going rock climbing, dinner at a friends house, and Tim's family staying the night. So I decided to break my blogs up a little bit. As you see this one is about our rock climbing adventure!

Tim was quite excited because he LOVES to go rock climbing. It's actually what we did on our first date. And the place we went on Monday was where we went on our first date. So it brought back some great memories of listening to conference while climbing, being scared and spilling an Iceberg shake all over his car right when he dropped me off! Great times! We will probably be going a lot more this summer. Since Tim has all the gear, why not!

This was also the first time we've taken Emery to the outdoors. She loved it so much that she just wanted to eat it all up, and she actually did take a few bites! :) What a great way to build that immune system! Nathan and her also found two lizards and had a great time playing in the dirt and rocks.

We had a great time with the Williams. It is always so fun to do stuff with great friends. Look out Summer, Here we come!
