Catching Up!

What can we say?  It's a long time over due.  I have no excuse, aside from laziness, but Jessica has been very busy and stressed with school, and Crystal and Sarah have been working very hard and going a little crazy.  So here is a brief update on our lives.

In March I went and visited my parents.  They are so much fun.  I can never get enough of them.  They need to come back. We went to the temple, the rodeo (I've been teaching them how to do self-portraits), the beach (it wasn't too pretty so there are no pictures of that), and we went out to eat a lot.  I miss you guys!


Then they came to visit for Memorial Day.  We took our mom to get pedicures at Gardner Village.  The best place ever for pedicures.  We love it, and they love it when we come. 

Me and Jessica have been hiking a little.  I wish it was more. I'm always looking for people to come with me.  We went up little Cottonwood Canyon at the temple quarry.  And also down south to Kolob and Zion's.  Kolob is my new favorite hiking spot.  It's gorgeous and there weren't too many people. 
Oh, and we REALLY love our camelbaK's.
For Crystal's birthday we went to Vegas. We love Coke Floats, M&M's, and the Bellagio.  I could watch the fountain show all night. Happy 30th Crystal!


This past Thursday we went to the Western Stampede.  It was totally awesome!  However, Matthew didn't enjoy the noise we were making quite as much as we did.  If you can see it, he's stuffed napkins in his ears to block our screams, well, mostly Crystal's. :)  But we really all had a lot of fun and I think we are living proof that you can be crazy and have a lot of fun without using alcohol. 



For the fourth of July weekend we went to Cedar City to visit the Shakespeare festival.  We all saw The Secret Garden and we loved it.  Honestly I think it's my favorite musical EVER. Crystal even admitted to letting a few tears escape. Then Jessica and Sarah went and saw As You Like It. They really liked this one also.

So that's us! We're hoping to have more adventure's this summer so hopefully it won't be so long before you hear from us again.
