I LOVE YOU SAN FRAN!

Oh how I love you San Fran. I love your food, your weather, your location to beaches, your large hills that I often climbed, your transportation system that I thought I got, but I didn't. I love your city feel, your sailboats everywhere on the water, your wonderful and clean public bathrooms, your colorful homes on the streets, your architecture, and your palm trees. I love your desserts, your 90 min. wait for your famous Ice Cream Soda Shop, your oh-so-many jaywalkers, and your many wonderful stores, but oh-so-high sales tax. I love your early risers on a Saturday morning, the runners on the piers that seem to run all day, the way there is a Starbucks in every corner and a cafe in between. I love the way English was the foreign language and the way I could never find someone who actually lived there for recommendations. I loved how there were people that were rude and didn't help a tourist get around, but get us even more lost and I loved how there were so many friendly strangers that would tell you to get off the bus because you were on the wrong one. Oh I love you San Fran. I love the memories I have from the moment I got there to when I had to leave. I hope to see you soon and I will let you know the details of my trip to the amazing San Fran.

Spotlight on Lola

Terrible Twos. It comes with every toddler. Every stage has its ups and downs. Right now, hands down, I would have to say that Lola is at that stage and is by far my favorite age with her. She makes me laugh like crazy, she is so smart, when you meet her, you can't help but adore her. When you are on her good side, it makes you feel good that she likes you. She is so special and our family would not be complete without her. I love you, baby girl!

Summer Time

We found a few new places around here that we have enjoyed. Spanish Fork has a reservoir that is a great place to cool down. The water is freezing, but it feels good when it was 100 degrees. There is a sand area and you can swim around. It is pretty deep in the middle of it. You can fish and we have even seen scuba divers come up. It has been fun to go as a family and to go with friends. Both my kids are loving the water. We have also had a great time at the Scera pool and the Payson pool. We have been going to so many places that the kids and I can just cool down.






Spanish Fork, every year, around Pioneer day, has Fiesta Days. We were able to enjoy the carnival here. It was the first time the kids have gone on rides. Grandma and Grandpa Brusik came down and went with us. The kids screamed the whole time. There was one ride they chose a different car to ride. It was hilarious, they didn't know what to do with themselves. They kept looking for each other and they weren't able to enjoy the ride. It was so cute!





It has been an amazing summer and it has gone by really fast.

Funny Lola

I was giving Lola a bath and went to get the phone. I came back and found Lola like this. "Mama, I'm swimming." What a funny girl!
