back to school.

We are back.

And dare I say it...Better than ever.

Super seniors are the cool kids (in case you didn't know).

Here's to my last and best year at BYU.

Happy Birthday Dad! (and hello Sun Valley)

Sun Valley and a birthday. What could be more perfect?

We spent the weekend celebrating my dad's birthday.

It was short and sweet and just the best.

We did all our favorite things...

scootering, croquet, sun bathing, and walking the dogs.

My dad said it was his best birthday yet.

My dad really is the best of the best.

Our family is so blessed to have him.

He is outnumbered 4 to 1, but he's always been a good sport.

I love him so much, and I'm glad we could give him a wonderful day!

Final Days in the District

My last days in my dear District were just perfect.

One last free Sprinkles cupcake,

breakfast at Founding Farmers with the gang,

taking "best friends forever" pics,

and a fond farewell outside the cab.

Oh D.C., how I love and miss you already.

You gave me a summer I will never forget.

The art of watching the Olympics.

Don't worry. I am not watching the Olympics by myself.

Everyone else has just mastered the art of how to stay seated during a Michael Phelps race.

I, on the other hand,  start seated, usually slide to the ground, crawl forward, 

and end up planted as close to the screen as possible.

Maybe someday I'll be able to maintain composure during these races.

Just not this year.
