5K Through the Lavender

On July 11th my sister Emily, my neice Brianna and I did the 5K through the lavender in Mona. I'll tell you my time when I run one with a time I'm proud of but I ran the whole thing which is what I was going for so I was happy. We only got pictures of Brianna finishing because the camera was in the car so Emily had to finish to unlock the car:)

Emily & Brianna with their swag bags. Brianna was laughing at me for being unreasonably excited about these:) She was right they were kind of crappy but I was still excited about the free stuff...I think its a symptom of couponing:)

Note to self: no close ups after running!

They had a pick-your-own lavender bouquet thing and I'm so mad because I came home and set mine on the counter and forgot about it for three days so it promptly died:(

I'm definatley getting some different shorts! I didn't realize how "12-year-old-boy" I look in these!

4th of July

For the Fourth of July we started out by going to the parade in Provo (along with the rest of the entire state!) Savannah wasn't scared by the loud stuff at all, instead she thought it was funny. Everytime a firetruck or canon would go by she would just laugh and laugh! Then we went home and watched a movie until we went to grandma bowen's house at 6 for birthday cake (she turned 82 on the fourth of july:) Then we went to my sister-in-law Tasha's family's fireworks show. They had a bounce house which Savannah loved, although she didn't even care about the fireworks! I was so mad I forgot my camera for the evening stuff but we had a lot of fun. David even came to the parade with us so I think that makes it a successful holiday!

Family Pictures

On Wednesday we went out the lavender fields to do our family pictures. My sister Emily took all these for us and I like how they came out even though Savannah was so mad the whole time! Thanks Emily!

Michael's Wedding

One of my best friends from high school got married this weekend and my sister Emily was a trooper and drove all the way to Vegas with me! David had to finish a project and couldn't come so it was just me, Emily, & Savannah. We left at 4:30 on Saturday morning so I could be at his sealing at noon and then drove to my grandparents house in Cedar City after their reception (which took forever because we forgot the fact that it takes much longer to get down the strip at 11pm on a Saturday night). Emily was driving and she was sooo mad at all the drunk people who wouldn't get out of the street. Savannah slept most of the way both ways which was great except that by the time we got to my grandparents Savannah was all rested and ready to play. I had been up for almost 24 hours and I was so mad! Emily was laughing at me all day the next day because she said she would wake up to me quietly yelling things like "this is not a choice Savannah, you have to go to sleep!" and "stop banging grandma's cupboards, its 4am!" So it was a whirlwind, not at all relaxing trip but I was so glad I got to be at Michael's wedding (when I got married he came to our sealing all by himself). Plus his wife Britt is such a cutie:) Their reception was really nice and I kept laughing at Emily (who hates being the center of attention) because she kept saying "when I get married will everyone look at me?!" and when I told her yes she just said "oh that is not going to be a fun day..." I bet she will change her mind.

waiting for Michael and Britt to come out...

Some friends from my parents ward in California took us to lunch at Panda Express and let Savannah take a nap in their hotel room so thanks to the Demasters for being so sweet! Here is Savannah running laps around panda express. I stripped her down to a onesie because she was definately not used to the heat!
