Marshall and I have been married for 7 years! We have a daughter named Libby. We dream of traveling, retireing early and adopting. We can't have anymore children, somedays that makes me sad. But I know there are ways around it. So that is where this story begins. In january of 2010 we found out that having anymore children of our own, was out of the question. So we prayed and prayed, and decided that adoption was the next step in life. We have been so blessed with the roller coaster that it has provided, and hope that the ride continues to be all we hoped it would be.
Marshall's mom has a tradition. She puts on a Grandma Camp.
this camp comes around once a year and it is an overnight camp.
She has a theme, projects, adventures,water activity, movies,crafts, and food. at the end of the 2 days they get to show off their adventures to their parents.
This year was NASA themed.
The kids were all Jr astronauts and had to make and name their space ship. they got to have a weightless experience at the mall. they had to travel to another planet and meet an alien. they ate space food and slept at the space station.
the kids love the camp and grandma has a great time too. I love this traditon because it is something they will never forget.

We took Libby on Saturday out had a family Ice Cream Date
I have a certificate to Golden Spoon and absolutely loved it. To bad it is all the way up at the north end of orem a bit to far for a quick trip.
so here are the pictures of our very enjoyable yogurts.
Marshall had vanilla with Reese's pieces
Brittany had chocolate brownie with Reese's peanut butter cup
Libby had Strawberry banana with mini M&M'S
We have been very busy since our vacation. So here are a few pictures of our adventures.
Brittany's Brother Joe had extra tickets to a Bees Baseball game and we took Libby. She scored a t-shirt and lots of good food. Thanks Joe for taking us to the Game we really had a ton of fun.

For the past several years Marshall and I have gone to the Fiesta days Rodeo!!!
we absolutely love going. So this year we figured Libby was old enough to go and have fun.
She loved watching the mutton busting and I love the the barrel racing. we have enjoyed it for years and have created our little family tradition of going every year. cant wait for next years I think the wild child will be back he is our favorite clown.
