Working hard, Job Update

This week Brian and I started a project of going thru everything in the house and deciding on what we are going to make a donation to the DNI or contribute it to our yard sale that we are planning on having next month. We have a lot of hard work ahead of us but with a good attitude and determination we can push it through all the way to the end. We have set the date for the sale on Sat Sept 12. We are going to have a lot of stuff to sell and hope we can make it a fun family event!!

Anyways Brian's update with a job: He did have a interview and a orientation with a company at the end of July called AmeriCOLD but we decided as a family to not accept it, he wasnt happy with the job for several reasons. Thats all for now.

Unita's

We went camping in the Unitas this week with Nathan and Leora and there dogs. It has been a few years since we have camped up there. It rained a lot when we first got there but than it turned over nice. On one of the days we went sight-seeing and stopped at Provo River Falls and took pictures of the beautiful scenery, there was actually four waterfalls in one continous river, I didnt happen to get all of the falls. (My battery was going low on my camera so I appreciated the pictures that I did manage to get. )






Nathan was so tired that he was able to sleep on the bench of the picnic table.



Brian was cutting us some firewood. We stopped at some pretty lakes, Lake Lilly and Teapot were just some of the names.












Brian and Nathan did some fishing, and the rest of us just stayed back at camp. It was nice to get another camping trip in before the summer is over.

WARNING-Learned his Lesson

Braxton was blowing big bubbles with his new pack of delicious Orbit watermelon gum on Monday. He took the gum out of his mouth and was trying to get the gum off of his face where the bubble had popped. He only made it more stickier and than he had a big gum mess all over his face, so he took a wet washcloth and tried scrubbing it off along with his skin. I was at work and talking to Brian on the phone when this event happened. I suggested alcohol, but there was none in the house Brian said. I didnt know the severity of it until I got home and saw his face. I than got more details as well, that Braxton sprayed his Sour heads watermelon mouth spray on it trying to get it off so may this be a lesson not to try this stunt at home. We hope that his face has healed by the time he goes back to school!!!
