So when I said that I would blog more often than Jared did obviously I was lying. Summer is finally here and we have been having lots of fun. Before school got out and in between Jared's semesters our family went down to Zion's National Park. It was a really fun trip. We stayed in a hotel in Mesquite that had a pool and bowling alley that the kids really enjoyed. That is the first time that I had ever been to Zions and it was really beautiful. We hiked around on a few trails and had a really good mini vacation. We also went and visited our old friends Mike and Katrina Wood. They are just as hilarious as ever. It was fun to see them.
Jared has been going to school this whole summer. He will probably go to school right up till he starts clinical rotations.( Loads of fun let me tell you ) The kids started swimming lessons last week. They are taking them up at Westminster. Miyah is in a class with about 5 other kids. She is doing really well. She has been a little afraid of the water this year so this class has been good for her. Shane's class didn't have any other kids sign up so he is getting private lessons. He gets braver every time, it's fun to watch them.
Mostly this summer we have been hanging around our place. We are finally starting to make more friends here and we have all the neighborhood kids over about every night. It gets kind of crazy but you know I love that stuff.
We had a fun visit with our friends Lisa and Luke Morgan from California. It was fun to hang out with them and catch up on all the goings on of our old branch.
We have been living here in Utah for 1 year now. It's crazy how fast the time is going. Miyah turned 5 last month and is very eager to start kindergarten. She asks me every other day when school starts. It's hard for me to believe I will have two kids in school this year. We hope you are all having a good summer. I will post more soon.
