Touring the Town

Here is the much needed update, or at least part of it! During July, we have some awesome friends come and visit us! The Robison family came, which was so cool since we got to meet their little guy, Matthew. It was so fun to have a little "little" guy there since he is two months old (or at least was when he was here). They got to tour our town with riding the railroad, seeing the donkeys, going to breakfast for 49 cents (awalys good), and of course, touring the gold mine where Chad works. So here are the following pictures, forgive me if they are not in a good order:


It was so much fun having friends here. Hopefully soon, we will be to visit them. :)

Searching for a dress

So I know I must do an update! But first I am searching for a dress for one of my best friend's wedding next year. I am way excited! I guess all the bridesmaids will be wearing a different color and my color is.... Fuschia pink! So me I know (just kidding). Even though it's not my color I have to say that I am looking forward to having a dress for spring/summer. But I am excited to find something but I have plenty of time since the wedding is now until june
