Susan's service Birthday

For Susan's Birthday this year she asked all the kids and grand kids to do 65 acts of service in her honor. It was so much fun, we really had a good time looking for places to serve others and do good. We plan to keep it going as much as we can.
Happy Birthday Susan We love you!!

JUST RUN.
People ask why I like to run. I say
"if you have to ask you will never
understand." It is something
only those select few know.
Those who put themselves through
pain, but deep down know how
good it feels.

Actually I have an answer...

I like running

Vernal

Since we haven't taken a real vacation this year we have been trying to take weekend get a ways here and there so we headed out to Vernal for a few days to just enjoy spending time with the family. This time we didn't have anything big plans or something we had to be at where every minute was planned. We got to just hangout and enjoy family time.
We had a really good time and did a lot of things I have been wanting to do this summer.

We got to visit my Grandma Carrie's grave. She was such a great G-ma and lady. I miss her and think of her often.

• Spent time with grandparents.
• Helped gma and gpa with a few chores around their house. And were so happy to do so.
• Visited Nate, Ashley and Thor (Parx and him became really good friends)
• Saw Megan and Treavor's new place, I'm Not jealous at all:)
• Boating. Where we ALL wake boarded! Even my parents, I was super impressed with them they both got up with in the first couple of tries!
• And I also got a run in with my Dad. I am always left in awe of him after running with him. He says running in Smithfield isn't easy but running in Vernal IS NOT easy you are always coming or going up hill, running on highways were cars just fly by like you're not there, sometimes on dirt roads and he does it like nothing! He keeps a good attitude the whole time and even after 16 miles is still pushing me! Amazing!!  I truly hope someday running will be as easy to me as it is to him.

We really had a great time and wish we could have stayed longer. Parx loved spending time with G-ma and G-pa and playing with his Aunts and Uncles we need to come back soon:)

I promise they were friends

Go Grandpa!
