I was reading a friends blog today, and it made me so homesick. We just recently moved from Richfield to Herriman. It was a great move, but it's so hard to leave people behind. We have moved a lot since Las Vegas; Georgia, Richfield, then here. O.k. not a ton, but it seems like it, anyway. When we moved to Richfield Wade was working nights, then coaching in the afternoons. Paityn was 2, and it was a very hard adjustment. It was his hometown, and he was well known. I on the other hand, felt like the wife stuck at home who had to deal with the change and all the chaos that change was bringing. I prayed for friends. I am not a great friend person. I keep to myself and I like it, but I prayed. I have been blessed to know some great women . It's amazing how the Lord blesses us with what we need. Wade moved up to Salt Lake that next summer to work, and I was left alone at home. I don't know what I would have done without these ladies. Bookclubs, PTA, lunches, zumba, the park, trips to Provo, or just hanging out at their houses. It was such a blessing. As I look back It's easy to recognize the people the Lord puts in your life, and I really don't think anyone will do. I really believe that "True" friendship is hard to find. True friends that make life easier, and fun, and enrich your life, friends that accept you for you with your flaws (many flaws) are not a dime a dozen. So, thanx ladies. Thanx for being my friend.

We saw these buck Wade has been watching last weekend.

Looks like a "Bachelor Party" Ha! That was Wade's joke. He about tore my arm off . We came around the corner and he saw all these Bucks ( is that right) in a field. He took my camera jumped out of the car with his phone, and said come back in an hour. I'm going down wind to catch some shots of these boys. Too bad, my lens isn't big enough to get them really well. They were beautiful though.

Wendover- aren't you jealous you couldn't come?? I know, I know.......It was ridiculous. I guess growing up in Vegas has jaded me. 4 hotels does not constitute a vacation. I hear a lot about going to Wendover. I honestly don't know why.

These opinions are not meant to harm anyone, they are not the opinions of the Broadcasting company, they are just opinions.

We took off to go see the Bonneville Salt Flats. One of the many things I love about Wade is he loves to see new things. We both love to take scenic drives, so we ended up here. It looks like snow. Kinda crazy, you can walk on it, and people were 4 wheeling all over it. We ended up in Wendover after we drove the 3 hours out there and this was it. It was closed because of wind, and it was $20 to drive out to watch the races, and we had to sign multiple waivers for our children. Sheesh!! Sometimes our trips don't pan out, but at least we saw something new. The Bonneville Salt Flats!! Woo- Hoo!

They didn't really eat it, just for pictures sake.

Aaaaah! A rest after an evening of Volleyball practice. Paityn loves volleyball. I'm sure it's because Lindsey does., but Wade doesn't miss out on practicing with her early.
