Reunion

Hooray for having a cabin on one of the many small lakes in northern Idaho! The best part of my summer growing has always been a two week reunion we have with all of our cousins on my dad's side. Days consisted of waking up early before all the parents and watching a movie before having pancakes, tubing and skiing constantly with an otter pop in our hands 24/7, and making entire cities out of sand. This is what i'll be doing for the next 2 weeks, so peace out reality I'm forgetting about everything and living in the water.


Like I said, I'm switching things up. My life is centered around my family and my sisters, so it's only fitting that I make my blog that way too and when I found this lovely blog here I became obsessed and inspired. Overtime I'll introduce you to all my gorgeous sisters, and let them start contributing to this blog. I may change the title a lot though because I'm indecisive, so don't be alarmed when it's different everyday. Have a great July!

4th of July

A little late for pictures from the Fourth? Never! Why? Because you can always celebrate where you live 365 days a year! Every year the fam goes to a little parade in Spirit Lake, and this town knows how to keep it classy with a clan of lawn mowers, floats that throw otter pops, and ending the "huge" parade a logging truck! Happy Fourth of July!

So I must admit something. I'm having a bit of a blogging identity crisis. When I started this I had something cool too post about, but at this point it is going to be very difficult to top JERUSALEM! I'm not a photographer, writer, married with kids, a fashion guru, or something else that is worthwhile for people to read about, so I've had a difficult time figuring where I want this little shenanigan to go.


Get ready for a little change.


These pictures are from a few weeks ago, but we hit the day rolling and spent our entire day at the soccer fields. I can't tell you guys how crazy it is to think about how different my childhood is from my little sisters. I grew up on the softball fields and basketball courts. They are growing up on the soccer fields. I grew up in the woods overlooking the temple. They are growing up in the woods with our grandparents and cousins as our only neighbors(but still in the woods). Even though I feel like we have grown up in completely different environments in the same family there is nothing like coming home to a family full of girls. 

Camping?

We had a ward "campout" this weekend, and let me tell you our family knows how to rough it. We slept in a huge field right next to the temple, so it was definitely a populated area and we slept in like a 20 man tent. With a family full of girls some of us need our luxuries.
