So no, I havent been a very good poster. I figure once every two weeks will show everything of excitement that we do. We can be very boring:) So what we have been up to?
Father's Day...
breakfast in bed. What more could be wanted. I also got Ben a firepit. I need to take a picture. We have spent many nights out roasting and it has been awesome.
Girls Camp...
Every year I honestly dread girls camp. I have to wear oxygen continually when I am in the mountains and it is a pain to say the least, but I got over myself and decided that I would stay most of the time this year. I slept over for two nights and had a great time with my girls. They are all awesome and unique. They are always teaching me new things and helping me be a better person. I love you girls!
our bishop(my brother) is crazy and becomes like the girls when he is there. 
Me and my girls, these girls are seriously the most amazing girls I have ever been around.
My 2nd counselor DeAnn, and my Secretary Janet. I couldnt do it without them and they are great friends.
4-wheeleer ride...
This past Saturday we went on a picnic on our 4 wheeler. It was awesome. Cambree loves it. Her and her dad make me a little nervous. I am not sure that I can send the two of them off without me. We had a really good time and it helps with my buyers remorse from the purchase of the 4-wheeler. It really is something fun we can do as a family.

Our House
There are a few that have not yet seen our house that have wanted me to take pics (namely Lyndsay) so this is for you! I don't have our bedrooms, bathroom, computer room, or any of upstairs which consists of Cambrees bedroom and playroom. Maybe later. Anyway, we love our home and Ben did a great job figuring it all out. I did pick the paint colors but mostly Ben picked everything else.

Happy Happy Happy Happy Happy Anniversary
So if any of you know the tune to that little jingle you probably won't get it out of your head for a bit. Anyway, it is our 6 year anniversary on Saturday. It is crazy to think of all that has gone on these past 6 years. Our lives have been crazy, but blessed beyond belief. If anyone would have told me we would be living in Fairview and Ben would be working at the telephone company I would have laughed in their face. Little did we know what the Lord had in store and oh how I am grateful that He knows so much more than we do.
A little sappy message to Ben, thank you for being my best friend and for giving up your dreams to make our dreams a reality. You are amazing and I could have never asked for a better husband, father to Cambree, or son in law to my parents. You are the best and I love you more now than I could have ever dreamed. I am so grateful that we are an eternal family and that through it all we can always hold close to that knowledge. We are truly so blessed! Heres to many more.
