Green Pond Hike

We went up with the kids to the Snow Basin area.  The Green Pond trail was so fun for the kids and the pond was so pretty.  It was so hot and by the time we got to the top we only had one water bottle left for all of us.  Just as we got ready to hike back down it got cloudy and cooled off about 10 degrees or more.  Krystal was so good at pointing out the simple tender mercy for us to be able to get the kids back down the hike with such little water.  I am so grateful for the tender mercies that are all around us.    

I DID IT!! Master's Degree Completed

I finished my Master's Degree in February but since WGU is all online, they only have graduation once a year.  I decided to walk since I never walked for any of my other degrees.  I was SO HAPPY that I decided to go to it.  It felt so good to finally be done with my schooling!!  Such a fun day!! 

These are the two women I met in line by me the one in the middle is from California and the one on the end is from Idaho.  It was so fun talking to them and discussing how their hospitals function.  I love hearing how health care is all over the world.  It's amazing how different it is everywhere.   These girls were so fun, we decided to do a cheer with our water for making it to our Master's Degree.  Something NO ONE can ever take away from us.   

Mason Family Night

 I LOVE summer time and all the parties, water fights and barbecues.  The Mason family got together and had such a fun night together.  The boys always have so much fun with their cousins.  

Random Fun

 The boys gave themselves beards out of band aides 

 These two pictures are SO CUTE to me.  I love seeing how Krystal and I were and now how Roz and Ella are.  SO FUN!! You can't live life without a sister!! 

So since I totaled my car I had to get another one.  We had one all picked out and ready to buy but it was going to be so expensive.  I found a van on Marv's lot.  It is a 2001 Ford Van with only 66,000 miles on it.  Zac isn't in love with it, but I am. . . it was only 3500.00!!  You can't beat that!!  

My Wreck

 On July 7th I was headed to work when I accidentally ran a stop sign and T-boned a mustang.  My car ended up being totaled : (  When I went to pick up the boys from my parents house Tegan was so concerned about what color and what kind of mustang I hit.  He LOVES his mustangs. . . good thing it was a green GT and not a Red Super Snake or he would have been really mad at me.  : )   

 After we went to see our car at the tow yard we came home to get dinner and do stuff around the house.  I went out to go to work and this is what Tegan drew on the garage floor and garage wall.  It was SO SWEET!!  He told me he just wanted me to have a reminder everyday when I left for work.  He is so sweet!!  Sure do love him!!
