Seriously, where do I start?

I let three months slip by with out posting anything. This will probably be the longest post ever! I'll try to rewind a bit and start at the beginning of our summer break. 

We headed up to Rexburg and stayed with Jaycie and Josh for about a week. Jaycie and Josh went through the temple and received their endowments. I LOVE going back to the Rexburg temple. I was in Rexburg when they first started building it and I attended many sessions while we lived there. I feel like it is 'my' temple.

I also ran my very first official 10k. It was a tough one and half of it was up hill. I remember thinking during the race that I would never sign up to do another one. As soon as I crossed the finish line I was making plans for another one. I finished around 1hr and 4 minutes. 

I absolutely love visiting Rexburg (during the summer). I already want to go back!

After Rexburg we headed to Nampa to visit Steve's family. We were able to spend about a week with them and also go camping. The boys loved being with Grandma and Grandpa Dunn. If only they lived closer!

Right after we got home we all came down with a nasty stomach flu. I HATE the flu and I hate even more when my kids have it. Parker got it the worst. I was so thankful that I had my family to help out. I feel bad though because every single one of them came down with it too.

We went camping again, this time with my family. For some reason, this is the only picture we got. The boys did so well. Parker could seriously live out there. 

Parker and Jaxon are beginning to play better together. Jax adores Parker, but Parker doesn't really even care most of the time. I love the stage that Jaxon is in right now. The poor kid gets squeezed and kissed all day! He's beginning to talk a little more, but I hope to cover that better when I do his 18 month post.

I ran another race, just a local 10 k. It was small, perhaps that is the reason I was able to take 3rd place. I don't care though. I still think it's cool! :) My time was 58:37! I was so excited that I ran 6.2 miles in under an hour. I'm still running a lot. I want to do a half marathon but it has been tough to find one that works with my schedule. 

This past weekend Jaycie and Josh were sealed in the St. George Temple. What a cool experience it was! I am SOO happy for them. Jaycie is also pregnant with their second. It's a girl! I'm not sure we'll know what to do with a girl. Ha ha!

This cool dude opened his mission call last night... NO ONE guessed where he is going. I haven't even heard of anyone one that has gone to this mission either. He is going to INDIA, BANGALORE! How crazy! He is super excited and even more excited that it is English speaking!

Just because I love Jaxon's face. :)

Oh this kid. I could go on and on. What a crazy personality he has. He is almost three! Yikes. I'll hopefully write a post for him soon also. For now, I'll just say that he LOVES super heroes. 

Oh and last thing, we took over the pest control business from my Dad. We are so lucky to have something like this. For the most part, one of us will be able to be home with the kids. They will hardly have to go to day care! What a blessing. It is so nice to plan your own schedule and choose the days you want to work (for the most part). Yay! 

Well, heres to the last month of my summer break!!!
