Jammed Packed July

Well as you can probably tell by my lack of posts, this has been one BUSY month
and I've loved every bit of it

Kenny has found a new love in his life
BASEBALL
and since the Diamond Backs actually win
(compared to the KC Royals in my previous home town)
I enjoy going as well!
For our first game, we sat clear up in the Nosebleeds

Then, thanks to Rikky and Nikki Murdock

we were given AMAZING seats and so now I'm not sure how we will ever go back

This was also a special game because we were able to go with Josh and Katie. 

I am privileged to have been able to teach Josh on my mission and now to see him happily sealed to Katie 

Ohh and did I mention that with our legit seats, we just had to get legit shirts as well! 

We also had our first Ward Camp Out :)

Can you tell I'm a little excited to get out of the Dessert? 

We headed north for about 2 hours to get to Payson, AZ

 & then up a mountain for another hour

and miraculously the temperature dropped around 40 degrees!

Why haven't we done this sooner?

 Mule Rides

Brand new tent thanks to Hyrum & Emmy
Thanks, it didn't even leak once in the rain!

My Favorite part
I don't know what it is about toasted sugar, but I LOVE it

Why do the woods always have to make the scariest sounds?

we WILL be back!

and then it was time for a GIRLS WEEKEND

I am lucky to have great friends that drove from Cali to see me

Elisabeth and Brenda are truly my very first friends

We go way back to the primary days, and as you can tell we are still refusing to Grow Up

 We had so much fun visiting the Mesa and Gilbert Temples

and of course, we made time for Very yummy food!

I love these girls and it's so great that we all followed each other from Missouri to the West

And SHOUT OUT to the best husband ever for letting me ignore him this weekend :)

Thanks Kenny

Now its almost August and I can't believe it!

Kenny is busy with school and work

while I just ended my job and have started my student teaching at Zaharis Elementary

I am teaching 4th grade with my amazing mentor teacher Mrs. Hassan!

Life is great and Kenny and I are loving our new adventures
