A Summer of Fun!




















Instead of sending an email, I decided to use that time and take the leap of faith and start a blog like everybody else. We'll see how it goes. I don't really know what I'm doing. Anyway, Our summer is coming to a close and Ammon is starting his phD this week at Johns Hopkins University, school of Biophysics. Our summer has been jam-packed with fun and it would take me all day to tell about it, so to make things simple for my first blog attempt, I'll be brief. July 1st we flew out to San Francisco to see the Jensens! We got to see Jake come home from his misison in Italy, go waterskiing and sailing in the lagoon, and backpacking into the Sierran mountains. The video that I hopefully will attach is of Ryley eating a raw fish eyeball from a freshly caught mountain lake trout. She doesn't have taste buds, and she's crazy. We had lots and lots of fun playing with little Olivia too! We spent 2 weeks there having lots of funness. Then, we flew to Utah to meet up with the Poseys! We took a trip in the car up to Montana for a family reunion and a week of waterskiing! Even Ryley got to feel the pull and went wakeboarding with Ammon. Jensen's favorite part was throwing rocks in the water. We also got to do a hike to a beautiful waterfall and mountain lake where we found a huge rope swing and made proper use of it. We also had lots and lots of fun with Kinley and Elle, our little cousins! Well, enjoy the pictures- they're the best part. I'm not much of a writer and it takes me too long to write much. Two kids keep us busy! I promise the next post will be more organized.

I am so glad you got a blog up and running so we can keep up with you guys better. Oh man eating that eyeball......ewe ewe ewe! My kids gag on normal everyday stuff, maybe I should try to make eyeballs for dinner to get them to eat better.

So does she really not have taste buds, I almost wish that cuz then I wouldn't love to eat so much. Glad you joined the blogging world! Good to hear from you and glad that you had such a fun summer.
