Trek!

We just got back from Trek, and I have lots of mixed feelings about our adventure! It was so much fun. We had the best and cutest little family ever:) I loved them all.. They were so good! We got very lucky:) I have been on Trek before and don't remember it being so hard. The weather was crazy. About an hour into the trek it hailed, and it hurt, and we were soked! Then it was sunny and warm and we were all sweating up big hills! Then out of nowhere it pours.. again! The first day we went 11 long miles.. (It's alot easier running 11 miles than walking and pulling a hand cart!) When we got to camp once again it poured and we were drenched. It was very frustrating trying to put up our tents in the rain, all of mine and tylers stuff were so wet we ended up sleeping in my in laws tent:) (Both mine and Tylers parents were there and my little sis! It was a blast). It rained all night and we ended up staying at camp all day instead of going on to a different place..! On Friday the weather was perfect.. It was so hott but lucky me I got so sick! Started with a sore throat and turned into a sinus infection and dehydration. It was not fun. But my cute family and real family were so nice and made sure I got better:) But even with all the rain and not feeling well we had the BEST time. Everytime I would complain I would just think it could be worse and it was worse for those pioneers.. It was such an awesome experience and so fun to be there with Ty!

My cute family! We had 9 kids:) They were the Best! This is this morning, 4 days without a shower, Im not looking too cute!
Me with my girls! Emily, Meghan, Kelsie, Me, and Katie! Love them:)
Tyler asked me one morning why I got my hair wet?? I never got my hair wet, it was just SO greasy it looked wet.. It was so funny!! Thanks TY:)

Ty and I with my in laws... They were so nice to let us share a tent with them! They are awesome:)
Kels and I during the womans pull, I didn't realize how heavy that hand cart was until the boys could not help us! Don't you love the ponchos! Best 2 dollars I ever spent!
My family!! It was so much fun having my parents and little sister there! (My sister made her, mine and my moms skirts and aprons and bonnets! She is so good at sewing! Thanks Brooke:)
Before we started out journey! We were so clean!

Waiting the load the bus!

I'm so happy we were able to go, it was so worth it! But I can't wait to sleep in my warm bed tonight! :)

Summer Fun!

Our summer so far has been super fun and very busy!! My brother Derek and cousin Beau graduated a few weeks ago. It's so fun having family so close to celebrate and do fun stuff with! We missed my grandma.. She is still recovering from Knee surgery. We have been up the canyon with friends, and went camping with Ty's work! We went to Angie's homecoming, a rodeo, and the Kelly Clarkson concert. Its been such a fun summer:) I just hope it stops raining so I can work on my tan! Now we are off to the Trek with my parents stake! (my mom is in charge of it so we got roped in 2 weeks ago, but now that its here and we are finally ready to go, we are super excited!!) We met our cute family tonight and we are off at 5 am tomorrow morning! Wish us luck:)!! 


Our Trek Family!!! We are the Survivors!! haha:)

Ty's work party! Even with the rain storms we camped and had lots of fun! We had awesome food, and singing, games and camp fires! Early in the morning the boys played golf, Tylers favorite thing ever!! His work is so fun!! 

Kelly Clarkson Concert!! Ty had to help (He is an ambassador for UVU!) and asked me to help too. Thats why we have these cool shirts! It was a fun concert, even with the rain! 

Some of the old high school gang at Ang's homecoming! 

Love these girls!

My brother, me, and my cousin Beau! Aren't they cute:)
