summer is already over?

summer flew by this year. probably because we were driving from place to place! our first vacation of the summer was going to seattle where we were lucky enough to see my good friends jess and kirk get married in the seattle temple. it was so fun to be there with them as they start out on their own journey.

our next stop was coeur d'alene idaho where jimmy's grandpa lives. it was so much fun spending time with him. he loved to tell us stories. :) one of the nights we were there, we went to a theme park called silverwood. it was so much fun. the rides were awesome! way better than lagoon. haha. one of the rides had a shop at the end and had all this crazy stuff in it...

then we went up to canada and spent some time at fort steel. it was so much fun being with lyal! our next trip was to san diego with the faber family and dustin! while we were there we went to a padres game and also we went to the beach where the guys learned to surf. it was a lot of fun hanging out with everyone, we miss dustin and the fabers a lot! it was awesome watching them surf. i didnt attempt it due to the water temperature. ya right! but they were troops and all of them got up on a couple waves...

isnt the zipper supposed to go in the back?? :)

the event that gave us the excuse to head to san diego was for jimmys childhood buddy's wedding. it was awesome to be there to see them get married! we are so greatful that they remembered to include us in their big day!
