Lagoon and Family Fun

I'm trying to play catch up with my blog since I've been such a slacker. We went to Lagoon for my dad's work Lagoon day and it was so much fun! Brady is so afraid of heights (as am I), but he was daring and went on the Rocket; me, on the hand, chickened out and watched the kids instead. Maybe next year... Mindy, Dustin, Bevin and Missy. Is Bevin's hat so cute or what?
Me and my hubby--only REAL men wear pink!
Me and my mamacita
Brady loved the bumper cars
My cute nephews Koen and Kade
Nate and Gina
Grandma and Grandpa Olsen--love them!
Lounging out on the hammock at Strawberry Pinnacles, in Fruitland, Utah. It was so much fun--we loved tubing down the river and just hanging out with the family. Is there anything better than that?!
We've had a great summer; it's a bummer that school is already starting tomorrow--I can't believe it!! On one hand, I feel ready to get back in the swing of things with school, but on the other hand, I feel like I just got done with summer semester! Oh well, I am happy to be getting an education and keep telling myself that it will all pay off in the end. Today we bought our school books and that always puts a damper on the day, but oh well. :)

Sun & Fun


We are off to sunny St. George tomorrow! We are so excited to take a break and enjoy the sun. We're gonna lay out at the pool, go golfing, go out to eat and who knows what else. I really am excited, even if it is just for a couple days. School starts next week, so we might as well take advantage of not having homework, right? Other exciting news:


Our new car

Our old car, Brady loved this car SO much!

A couple weeks ago we took advantage of the "cash for clunkers" program and got ourselves a new Nissan Sentra. We love it! It's so cute and fun--we were both sad to see the Chrysler New Yorker Fifth Avenue go (it was Brady's favorite car, next to the Dodge Spirit he drove when he was 16), but this will be a good change and will last us a long time. I even asked the salesman if it could fit 2 car seats in the back. I'm just thinking ahead for when that time comes. :)
