It's Been a Busy Summer

We definatley have been keeping busy this summer and I have a lot of catching up to do.
To start off we went to Hogle Zoo with my good friend Nikki and her two boys. It was so much fun and Makenna loved looking at all the animals. She was such a trooper since we were gone all day long. The boys also loved having a little girl around and Nikki and I caught one of her boys holding hands with Makenna. It was so cute but of course when we got the camera out they stopped.

We also took Makenna camping for the first time. We wanted to do a trial run since we will be going camping a couple of more times this summer with other people. She was great! She played in the dirt, slept like an angel. The only thing was she was super grumpy the next day. We had a great time.

We also finally broke out our dutch ovens that we got for our wedding(sad I know) and the food was delicious!

We had a fun 4th of July. Our only plans were to watch the fireworks in town and we had such a good time with friends. Makenna could have cared less about the fireworks, she just wanted to keep playing.

We made it to Bear Lake last weekend and had a good time with my brother and his wife. I'm sure Makenna could have stayed all day. We walked up and down the shore several times and enjoyed playing in the sand.

Makenna got her first real haircut. I've trimmed her hair every now and then but have been waiting for her little patch in the back of her head to get longer before she gets a real haircut to even things up. She cried for the first 5 minutes because she didn't want to wear the cape, but after that she held so still and kept looking at Lindy wondering what she was doing to her hair. As you can see from the picture she was not very thrilled about this experience but I found it hilarious.

You can't really tell from this picture her new doo but I liked the picture.


I also went to Girls camp last week. The first time I've been away from my babe for so long. It was fun to be with the YW and a nice break from the usual home life but I was ready to come home to Steve and Makenna, I sure missed them.

We still have so many things going on this summer I can't believe how fast it is going.
