August

 At the beginning of the month  we got to go to the Olsen reunion. They hold a big golf tournament every year and Jay and Tammie asked if I wanted to do it with them... I have never golfed in my life but we were playing best ball so I figured why not! I pretty much stunk it up but very one else did way good  :)  

That night we had a big dinner and then they handed out awards and I ended up winning a hat, golf balls and a ball bag and Chet got a club brush. It was fun to see family and to spend time and be part of something that Jay, Tammie and Chet enjoy doing so much! 

I spent a few Saturdays down in Murray helping my sister sale berries at the farmers market down there.... It's always fun to spend one on one time with her and being able to help her out! 

We went to the country fair with Alyse and Jake and mainly just walked around to see all the animals and booths. We stopped to get some fair food and Chet got to have his first funnel cake. We spent the rest of the time looking at all the rides and watched Jake play some games. 

For Chet's birthday I wanted to do something fun.... I planned a surprise birthday party the sunday before his actually birthday. I kept it pretty low key and invited our families and some of Chet's closest friends. When Chet got to the park he was way surprised and had no idea. He hates things like that but he had a fun time and wasn't to mad :) 

For his actually birthday it was more a relaxing time. We both worked and then he went to help a friend out for awhile... I wanted to take him out to dinner but he wanted just to eat at the house. We just spent the night watching movies and spending time together. It was a perfect low key night! 

I stopped by my sisters after work one day and Stella has been dying to have a sleepover with me and Chet for SO long. I brought her home with me and we enjoyed every minute she was over here. We stopped to get dinner and then we spent the rest of the night doing hair and makeup on each other. The next morning she wanted to hurry and do everything before dropping her off with grandma. She found my iPod and she thought it was so great and carried that thing everywhere she went till we left. 

My sister Katie and Emelia  flew from New Hampshire for a visit and Dan came for a few days for his brothers wedding. We didn't have anything planned mostly just played everything by ear. I love having all my sibling together and enjoy playing with Emelia. I took the little ones on a walk and we watched the guys play baseball one night. 

Friday me and Chet went to the temple while my family took the bus up to USU campus to get Aggie Ice Cream. We met them up there and had fun visiting before they had to hurry and catch the bus home. 

Saturday morning  Katie and Cambria went to the temple and me and Chet watched all 3 kids. We spent a lot of time making forts, having a picnic and playing outside. I love being an aunt and getting to spend time with them as much as I can. 

That night we threw Alyse a baby shower and it was fun to see all the things she got... Sadly I didn't think to take any pictures. I can't believe baby will be here in October and I can't wait to meet the little guy! 

I finally went out on a couple of tows with Chet. Every time I went we got home super late but it was fun to see how everything works. Chet amazes me everyday with all the work he does. I appreciate him so much!!  

I was pretty proud of these back to school survival kits I made for my young women. I tied a couple of different ones I found on Pinterest that fit better for my girls. They were so excited to get them!! 

Chet has also been playing a bunch of softball games with different teams and it's always fun to see him play when I get the chance.
