I love sleeping in a tent with my girls.  (Unless it's freezing and then I like sleeping anywhere not freezing.)

I like seeing people walking to church and I like singing patriotic songs in church.  "Oh beautiful for heroes proved, In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life!  America!  America! May God thy gold refine, Till all success be nobleness, And every gain diving."

Rough moment at our house as Cam and Ry have been fighting and fighting and I lost it a bit.  Just then Mason comes up and gives me a hug and says, "I love ya mom."  Love that boy.

Mom/kid camping is so cool.  Kelly King and I had a fabulous time.

Awesome animal encounter up AF canyon.  A hawk swooped down 15 feet in front of us and grabbed a rodent for lunch and flew away with it in his talons.  It was so cool to see.  And a little sad but circle of life.

Fabulous afternoon spent with just Sadie.  That girl is so awesome.

The kids do not like hiking but I like hiking with the kids.  It's such a great time to talk and laugh.  And have math lessons.  :)

Such a good day talking the YW to the Manti temple.  It was so cool to walk in to the baptistry and see my parents dressed in white and organizing the temple workers.  Love those parents of mine.  And I sure like the Manti temple.  Absolutely beautiful up on the hill surrounded by green grass and flowers and trees.  Sigh.

Felt good to go on a run and listen to a good BYU speech.  Ended the run with some Imagine Dragons - I'm on top of the world (ay).

Watching World Cup with Mason is pretty awesome!  Although I could deal without interruptions and commercials.  Still awesome.

Kenz and I rock at singing along to High School Musical.  Seriously rock!

Quote of the day comes from Sadie when we got to the zoo.  "It smells like the zoo and the zoo smells like poo."  :)  True.

Overwhelming feeling of gratitude and thanks while walking around the USU campus.  Alone time is good.

He Loves Me - by Hilary Weeks:

Deeper than my heart can hide
Stronger than I feel inside
More than I realize
He loves me
Steady as the day goes by
Longer than the reach of time
Enough to give His life
He loves me

It's always nice to go for a bike/scooter ride around the block on a summer evening.  There's the "little block" - down to the corner, across the street east, down the other side of 900 east and back.  There's the "big block" (that we did tonite) which is around the actual block.  Then there's the "big, big block which goes past the park, around by the Wilcox's, and past a few circles and home.  Fun, I know.

Zion Narrows hike was so cool!  Mason loved it.  His favorite hike ever he said.  So fun to enjoy it with him and watch him play in the water and skip rocks.  Also fun to watch Rylie.  She's such a great hiker.

The scripture for stake girls camp is D&C 58:27-28.  The power is in you.  Our ward's super hero is Batman.  BAT stands for "Belive And Testify".  Our batman sweatshirts are so cool!
