Time Flies when you're having fun...

I feel like yesterday was the beginning of summer..and now it is the 5th of August..time sure does fly.. I have not posted in awhile.. mainly because it is summer and we have been super busy...

James and took a nice 10 day vacation in July and it was awesome we did not have any plans.. we knew our first stop was going to be Thermopolis, WY and after that we decided where we were going to go once we packed up camp and hit the road.. We camped near Clarks Fork (which is near Cody) then we took a day trip driving the Beartooth Pass, which some people call the highway to the sky.. it was awesome.. there was so much snow up there.. we also hit up Red Lodge, MT for a day... once we packed up camp at Clarks Fork, which by the way we named "Camp Awesome" we were the only people around and we were near the river with 4 wheeling trails.. we headed up to Montana and stayed in a KOA that nigh mainly because it was getting late and dark and we had not decided where we were going.. it was nice to get a shower and swim in a pool.. from there we headed to Gardiner, MT we were hoping the the Boiling River would be open in Yellowstone park (it is where the Gardiner River and the Boiling River meet.. it is a free all natural hot springs..) however, the river was stay to high and flowing to fast so we could not do that.. so we headed up to the Gallatin National Forest and stayed in the Tom Miner park right next to the Petrified Forest. Again, we were the only ones up there and we had a great time.. We did meet a man who was up there who was attacked by a bear up there in 2007 and came back every year.. his story was amazing and his scars were crazy.. While we were camped up there we made a day trip into town to go to Chico Hot Springs.. which is a resort with hot springs.. I want to go back there and stay at that resort.. Then on the 23rd we started making our way back home we decided to do it in 2 days since we were pretty far away.. when we got off the mountain and turned our phones on I received news that my sister Amelia had her baby.. Chloe Read Pierce born 7.2lbs at 5:00am she is so cute.

Once we got back into town on Sunday we headed out to Glendo to go boating with our friends.. after all we were not ready to end our vacation just quit yet. The following weekend I went down to Denver to see my sister and to meet my new niece.. she is so tiny and cute.. I was able to do a small photo shoot with her at 1 week old..

I hope everyone has had an awesome summer so far...

That pretty much sums up my summer so far.. this weekend we are going to the lake for our friends birthday and we are going to go boating, knee boarding and tubing.. it should be fun..
