Sayonara!

This month was my birthday, my 23rd to be exact, and my birthday has always been an interesting time for me. Of course I enjoy birthdays but mine being in August is always a bit sad. I know that as soon as my birthday comes the days of summer come to an end and alas real life must begin. This summer has been such a quiet one for me. I haven't been working and although i have had a few classes they weren't all that time consuming and thus i had plenty of time to spend cleaning, visiting friends and family and just getting done that which never gets done. Unfortunately, next week classes begin again and my job in an elementary school starts and while i am grateful to be busy again, I am having a difficult time saying goodbye to summer. So here it is my last pining for summer bliss. Sayonara! I am now ready to embrace the busy days of real life!

Despite the weather!

For this last weekend, Josh and I had planned some fun water activities. We were planning an end of summer pool party bash with friends we hadn't seen in awhile and then because I had planned on playing a bit with my friend Stephanie we decided we would go up to Bear Lake for Saturday. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate with our plans and it ended up being too cold and rainy for all of the above.


Despite the weather, Steph and I found a great way to entertain ourselves. On Friday we visited the zoo, something we both had not done for quite some time. Although we were without children and I think some people were wondering what exactly we were doing, we had a great time!

This picture you can't see all that well but it was hilarious as it happened, Steph was standing in front of a fan blowing water and it just looked too funny to not picture.



Okay so these water fountains have always just made me laugh so we both had to take some pictures in front of them.





It was a great day! Thanks for suggesting this Miss Yates, it made for some great pictures.



Thanks to the Lash family we were able to go to a Real Salt Lake soccer game on Saturday night and although it was an interesting game, we all had fun!
