Catch Up Summer 2010

I have been really bad about updating my blog since we moved. I guess I'm just busy lately. Looking back through my blog I realized their are things I haven't blogged about....so warning-this may be long!
May-For mother's day I got a new vehicle! We traded in our truck for a fun Jeep!
June-June 7th I started a new job. It was a hard decision, after working for my former employer for 9 1/2 years. I think this will be a good change and better for my family. I think my new employer will be more understanding that I am a working mom.
The weekend of June 11 we went camping for our 1st camping trip of the summer-it was also my brother Cody's birthday and that's what he wanted to do. We went to Stienaker. IT RAINED BUCKETS THE WHOLE TIME!! It rained so much that we had to stay under the pavilion the whole time. It rained so much that our tent was so drenched that we only stayed 1 night in it. It rained so much that when we slept in Cody and Lindsey's boat with them the next night that it was leaking. It rained so much that my jeep(which has a hard top) was leaking a little. It was also not very warm.So we decided to take a ride up to Flaming Gorge and take a tour of the dam-anything to get out of the weather. On the way up it was snowing!! I couldn't believe it. I guess we are die hards because we toughed it out. We always have fun just hanging out together. But come Sunday morning after breakfast we decided it was time to clean up and head straight home. It was definitely a wet June!!
We also got a new family member in June. We got a blue great dane puppy. We named him Gus. He is such a fun BIG dog!
July-We celebrated the 4th of July at our house this year with a little barbecue and some fire works and root beer floats. This has been a crazy summer. We live in the desert so it is usually super hot. Not this year-it was so cool on the 4th of July that we had to wear hoodies!August-The 1st week in August is UBIC. A celebration our little town has. We don't participate in a lot of the activities, but we always make it to the parade. This year Mater from Cars was in the parade. My boys thought it was great! A couple weeks later is the annual Weight family reunion. We always go and have a good time! And guess who showed up to the reunion-MATER! So I had to get a few pics of him.
We had a ton of fun at the reunion. It's always so nice to see everyone and catch up. John has a great family!
