Sunshine and Summertime

We have been LOVING our summer! Jake and I have been having a blast enjoying the nice weather. We take each opportunity to get out and play. This Summer feels different than the other 3 we've shared. We finally have our own home, a garden to enjoy, neither of us have school, our work schedules are flexible. We finished the yard a few weeks ago and we love LOVE the grass. No more dirt! Of course Nelli is always chilling in the grass in some shade. She's grateful for our purchase too.






















It was so cool to see the sprinklers running the next morning.

We've been doing more than yard work. We went to Lava with Tanner and Lindsay, Turkey hunting in Richmond, Lake Powell, Burley for 4th of July, Cabin in Blacksmith fork canyon, and lots of BBQ's with friends and neighbors.



On Monday we took Nelli and the boat fishing at Hyrum dam. Jake grilled up some lunch. Nelli loves the water. She jumped in right when we launch from the docks. Here she's fetching a dummie for Jake off the beach. And on the way home she wanted to look out the front window and she feel asleep with her head in between the seats. She always makes us laugh. Silly puppy!
