Yes, we are still alive...

So I have to start this off by apologizing for the lack of information in the last little while, basically all summer. In the past the summer was always known for being lazy and enjoyable, and while this summer has been enjoyable I can definately say it has not been lazy. Between my family moving to Washington, work and other things I have barely had time to breath, let alone keep this up to date. But, I do apologize and promise to make more of an effort (I hope).

Here are few of the highlights since my last post:

Over the 4th of July Jeff and I took a road trip up to Yakima to visit my family in their new place. We spent a few days in Yakima, and then we all drove to Seattle, which is about an hour and a half away and spent the 4th there. We went to a Mariners game, visited Pike's Place, rode the Space Needle and ate some fantastic seafood.

Kris's Mission

So I guess you could say that the biggest change for our family recently was Kris leaving on his mission. He went into the MTC on Wednesday and will be serving in the Hungray Budapest Mission. It is crazy how much he has grown up over the last few years, and we will all miss him a ton, but we know he is where he is supposed to be.

Other than this not a whole lot is going on, Jeff recently started a new job with SOS Staffing as their on-site manager at the Provo Nu Skin. He seems to really like it and we were glad he found a job that will be flexible with his school schedule come this fall. Also, we got rid of our Altima and upgraded to a 2008 Toyota Highlander. I am definately spoiled :)

Well I hope everyone else is enjoying their summer and keeping cool. Keep in touch. We love you all!
