Back to School!

School has actually started... haha how exciting huh? I think that this summer went by WAY too fast! Especially this last month of July since we were so busy! It was a lot of fun though. Having the 4th of July celebration, Going to St. Johns for the 24ht, then Heap Reunion! :) At least it was fun while it lasted! Well, this year drake is starting fifth grade! Can you believe it? I remember that age perfectly. He even has the same teacher I had! haha and as for me, I'm going to be a big sophomore! whoo! haha only two more months until I can drive! :D Can't wait!!!

Triathlon!

Paige and Shay have been training for this for a long time! It finally came and my family, Shay's family, and me all went up to show low to go support them in it. We took signs and everything :) They both did so good! Paige finished in 1 hour 51 minutes! and Shay did in 1 hour and 23 minutes! I was so suprised at how well they did. There was first the swimming portion, then to biking, and then finally the last part was running. I don't know if I could have handled it! haha I was proud of them both and I think they are just glad its over. GO PAIGE AND SHAY!!!



















Crossing the finish line!

Last weekend with Brock

This weekend My family and went to the valley for our last vacation with Brock. We went to movies and had Thanksgiving at my aunt Margie's house! It was sooo good and I got to see all of my cousins on my dad's side of the family. :) We went to a light parade the day after Thanksgiving and then went to the Temple to look at all of the Christmas lights too. It was so cool to see all of it! We were even able to go shopping! :) It was great to be able to spend time with my family all week and do all of those fun things. When we got home we took family pictures and then went to dinner with some of my cousin's and their families. Later that night Brock was ordained as an Elder!!! He's officially Elder Stratton :) I'm so proud of him. After that my family, and some of Brock's friends were over. That was his LAST night home for two whole years!!! I don't know how we're going to get used to him being gone... Especially Drake. It's going to be so wierd when he's gone... I know he will do good though!






Me Brock and Drake at the lights parade! It was awesome :)
