Well, what's worse than not being able to post all of my beautiful Montana pics? Having a camera that breaks! First my beautiful wonderful sewing machine (I know that sounds Crazy!), then my camera. Not only did it break, but it's in the trash can broken. I am so bummed. Actually was almost a little teary. Especially here, and for cousin camp! We have been through a lot together. From Paity being new born, to our move out to Utah, picture, after lovely picture. If my little camera could talk you would be ashamed to hear the things I am compelled to say to get my kids to stay still. Just kidding, (a little bit.)I could go out and buy a cheap one, but then Wade would never let me get that expensive Cannon that I have been eyeing. Well, here's to my next camera, may I buy you sooner than I think. Sometime in the year 2010 would be great!

To all those of you who are checking in daily wondering when will that wonderful girl who is so inspiring blog again? Not until August. I am in Montana for a much needed vacation, and I don't have my camera software, and as I said before I am against blogging without pictures. I had to update though. It's killing me to not put up my pics.

Where has this month gone?? I'll tell ya where. Reunion at Fish Lake, Las Vegas, and Girls Camp. Whew! Just let me catch my breath and get some laundry done. I can't believe that June is already over. So sad. Now, just 1 month and 1/2 before kids go back to school. YUCK!

We went up to Boullion Canyon in Marysvale for Girls Camp '09. IT was gorgeous. We camped right next to this gorgeous stream that was more like a river. Awesome campground and a little action with a bear in the area. Thanx to Bishop McAllister for having his loaded Bear Gun handy. Wizzer is actually a Bear Hunting Dog. They let these hounds go and they chase the bear, and when they are tired of it, they come home. Such sweet dogs. We had 2 come into camp and a lab that got loose from it's little old lady owner, a raccoon, a hummingbird, and countless bugs and squirrels. We had such a good time. The leaders had a great time staying up until 2 laughing. I am proud to admit we outlasted the girls both nights, and Sister Boyter did a great job scaring the girls with her "Long skinny fingers, and big purple lips" story. We hiked up to the big beautiful waterfall and let the girls play underneath it. It was fabulous. We have an awesome bishopric that came and helped, and the Michaelsens for coming too. It was awesome! Now, we can pack for Montana. Wheew!

O.K. I am absolutely against blogs with no pics. Sorry friends who have one. I just would rather look at pics than read blogs, unless their funny. This website is so fun, though and I just had to share. It's like 1 million blogs in one because of all the links. She blogs a new craft 5 days a week. How great. It's just so entertaining to look at and get ideas from, and go to the sites she links and look there too, and then go to their links and look there too. You get my point. Anywho, just thought I'd share. Happy crafting, baking, and sewing!

We got Lindseys hair cut yesterday. We cut layers and some bangs. She looks about 5 years older. Bummer. It's really cute though, and we love it. Always nice to have a change.

Paityn and Wade going to fish on Zeb's Creek in Fishlake

Now, I know that swimming in the ditch is customary here, but I still think EW!! From swimming in our Brown Lake in Georgia to playing in the ditch water in Utah. Can't my kids find good clean burn your eyes out chlorinated water?? They had fun though! That's what counts.....
