Summer Adventures 2011
We have had a great summer! It has been the first summer that we have had off together since we have been married! (And the first one I have had off in 10 years since being in school, I didn't quite know what to do with myself at first) but, Chance and I had a lot of fun together. Chance got a new job as an LPN at Mckay Dee Hospital and he only has to work one night a week most nights so that has left us being able to spend time with each other after work which has been a great change too! Here are some of the fun things we have done:
We went to 2 demolition derbies. One in Bear Lake and one at the Davis County Fair. The Davis County Fair was our favorite because my friend Krissy Stebar just got off of her mission and she came with us which was tons of fun! And after the derby it felt like she was still in race car driver mode but we made it home alive:0) Our friends from high school, the Winterton brothers were all in one race together so that was alot of fun to see them race as well.
We spent the weekend at Bear Lake it was really realaxing and really fun! It was much more crowded than when we go in the off months but it was really fun.
Jill, Jamison and my mom hanging out on the beach at Bear Lake. The lake was really high this year but Jill found us a spot by her step dads new home in Bear Lake it was fun.
Chance and Zack were the only ones who were brave enough to get in the water. It was FREEZING!
Chance and I went to the Ogden Pioneer Days Rodeo. It was great this year! They even had motocross at the end. We also were able to be on the Calton - Harrison Float for the parade. It was a really long walk and TONS of people. We handed out water bottles from this big school bus. It was really heavy but alot of fun. We ran out of water 7 blocks early. We were entry number 81 and there were still more behind us it was a really big parade. My mom waited for 2 hours just to get a quick picture of us. The things parents do for there kids.
Chance has been working really hard for about a year on his dune buggy and this year it is complete. He rode it clear from Avon to Willard Peak. He had a lot of fun! We also were able to ride on Avon together. Zack and Jill and Jamison even came and rode it one day around Huntsville and we had a great time!

25th street has these horses that businesses paint and they set them up. We went for a walk and the money one of course was our favorite:0)
We had a great summer together! Now back to reality... School starts tomorrow for Chance and I. Chance is going to be in his second year of nursing school and when he is complete he will have his RN. He is also working at the hospital. He will get to do his clinicals here as well. So alot of time will be spent at the hospital. Some paid and some unpaid but it will pay off in the end. I am just taking a couple of classes that I need to finish my prerequisites for nursing. I will apply in October and see if I get in the first round. If I don't I think I'll go get my MBA and keep applying for nursing. So we are excited for our future. It has been a great summer!
