Summer Fun

So far we are having a great summer especially since the weather has finally cleared up! We have especially enjoyed the time we have been able to spend with our families. We are taking advantage since we will be moving in August. A couple weeks ago we went to St. George for the weekend with Alan's family.



We celebrated my brother Scott's birthday a couple weeks ago as well.

This is a classic picture of Scott!


The best part of the night was that my nephew Lucas finally said my name!

We are so grateful for our families and the time we get to spend with them. We are so excited about the new addition to our family this past week. My sister and her husband had their first baby on Wednesday. I can't wait to meet baby Weston in two weeks!

Father's Day!

So this year for Father's Day I attempted to be a homemaker and we made homemade presents for our dads. We had a lot of fun baking and decorating the cakes and ending up eating WAY too much frosting in the process. I am seriously impressed with Alan's cake decorating skills! We may start a business in Pocatello.

This is the beginning of the project

After many hours of making two cakes, one batch of rice krispie treats and lots of frosting...this is the finished product!
We are so grateful for our fathers and all that they do for us!

Three Months Ago...

Three months ago was the best day of our lives and it only gets better.
Happy three months Al.
I love you!

Scofield

A couple weekends ago we went to Scofield Reservoir for the weekend with Alan's dad. He has a cabin there and I have heard so much about it as long as I have known Alan but I have never been there. We had quite the weekend. The weather put a damper in some of our plans but we were still able to do some fishing, ride the four-wheelers, and sat around the camp fire.

One of the highlights of the trip was taking Bodie the dog in our car to the cabin. This required a lot of negotiation and finally we accepted Mikey's offer to cover the backseat with a sheet and clean the car when we got home.

I learned an interesting fact about Alan on the trip. He was an avid boondoggler as a child. We found a piece of boondoggle at the cabin and he showed me how to do it. I know have a fabulous keychain!



The breakfast chefs!

Alan and I were the sequence champions

Congrats to the Grad!

Alan graduated from Westminster College on May 30th. I am so proud of him and excited for the next phase of our lives...Pharmacy School! Alan is such a hard worker and it is so amazing to see what he is able to accomplish! Congrats Al...four years down, only four more to go!

Memorial Day and the Bees Game

This post is a bit late but we had a fabulous Memorial Day and enjoyed spending time with our families. The evening started off with a barbeque with the Neidig clan. The BBQ consisted of great food, croquet, and entertainment provided by Lucas. We love this boy and have been so blessed since he was born!







After the BBQ we headed over to Alan's house. I played Wii Fit for the first time and unfortunately my age was 35! I've got some work to do!


We also went to the Bees game last weekend with Alan's family. It was a blast and they did fireworks at the end of the game.


And best of all...my sweet husband brought me flowers before the game. I love him!

We are grateful for the time we are able to spend with our families and are so blessed to have them in our lives!
