What we've been up to

Warning this is a long post!


When I got back from TX I had some time before school to drive out to Cali with my sister. It was so fun to be able to spend time with her. She really is my best friend, and she makes me laugh constantly. Love you Tay.


When Dave got home we were able to spend time with the Browns in Island Park. We loved sitting around playing games, jet skiing, and eating:) We had a great time and can't wait for 2012.





We also were able to go camping Labor Day weekend with my family. We stayed up by Tony's Grove. We relaxed, went to Minnetonka Cave, and rafted on Tony Grove Lake.






Okay so after all that fun I had to go back to school. Check out this stack of books!



And last but not least my Mom and I went to Time Out for Women hosted by Deseret Book. It was so amazing. It's a conference with wonderful speakers and musicians. It made us laugh, cry, and really evaluate our lives and how we can be doing better. I loved every minute of it.

So Long to The Lonestar State

Well everyone my plans have changed and I am heading home this Sunday! It's crazy how soon that is. This summer really has been so fun, and we have made some great friends. Dave has done so well with selling and I am way proud of him. I am so extremely grateful for how good he treats me and how willing he is to support us. So I will have 2 1/2 weeks without Dave, which isn't very fun, but it will be good for me to get settled in before school. We have some fun plans for Saturday so I will post some pictures! We are so grateful for this experience and hope to continue to be successful in the future. Can't wait to see everyone!!!!

Summer Life

Hey everyone! Just wanted to give an update on our life in Amarillo. Dave is still working hard with sales, yesterday he hit 75! Which makes us that much closer to our goal. It's been hot here in Texas, but very windy. We have started watching Lost at night, which we love, but it's not so good for us because we loose track of time and don't notice till it's 2 A.M. Good thing we can sleep in :) Then I wake up with dreams of being on a ship lost at sea. hahaha!!!!

We've done some fun stuff here in Amarillo. A few more things on my list are a couple of museums, Wonderland amusement park, Splash water park, and a few famous Amarillo restaurants. There is a restaurant here that you can order a 72 oz steak! I have heard that out of 48,000 people only 8,000 have been able to finish it. Then there is another place called Coyote Bluff Cafe, it's a run down little place that has great burgers. It's been on a few shows on TV. Every time we try to go the place it way crowded, which doesn't suprise me! It's literally about as big as a snowcone shack! But hey those are usually the best places.

Well life is good, but we are excited to come home to Utah. The countdown has begun 36 days and we will be packing up!!!

Amarillo

Today it is rainy in Amarillo, and it has been for the last few days. I was excited to leave Midland, but now I kind of want to go back. It was so hot there, and I loved it!

Midland Sky




It has been a little bit interesting moving in here. We haven't had any furniture and some other stuff like washer and dryer, and a microwave. We have been doing fine without these items until Dave tried to make some nachos using the oven. ha ha so funny!



Every summer each APX office is involved in a service project. We were able to do some gardening at a food bank. It was good to take some time to help others.




Other than that we have been just hanging out and enjoying the summer. Can't believe it's already half over!
