Day in the Sun

Boating Fun!

My Dad surfing the waves of Pineview :)

Josh's family has an awesome boat, and they were generous enough to take my family out for a day on Pineview Reservoir. Most of my family aren't big boaters, so it was fun to get everyone together and out of their comfort zones :) Even my Dad got in on the fun and went tubing and surfing! We had so much fun and even though we were all really sore the next day it was definitely worth it!

American Idol!


Dinner at the Spaghetti Factory

Josh's mom loves David Archuleta! She wore orange in honor of Murray high :)

Thanks Bobbie for such an amazing night!

We had so much fun singing along with all of the performers! We all love David Archuleta!

Josh's cute little sister Rachel turned the big 16 yesterday, and to celebrate we went to the American Idol Concert! We started off by going to the Spaghetti Factory, which is always amazing, and then went to the E center for the concert. I have been in really loud arenas before, but never in my life have I heard as loud of a noise as when they announced David Archuleta was coming on stage! My ears are still ringing... The concert was absolutely amazing, and I was really impressed with all of the top 10. Surprisingly, one of my favorites last night was Carly, who I didn't like on the show, but she sang some incredible songs! David Archuleta was so amazing, and he got all choked up at the end of one of his songs.
We are so glad Rachel is FINALLY 16, and that she let us tag along for her birthday party :)

4th of July Weekend





Our niece Aubree and our nephew Karter are the cutest kids ever, and they are stinkin' cute on their bikes :)

We were so excited to get out of Logan for the weekend and head on down south to spend some quality time with our families. On July 3rd, we had a big family party with all of my Morgan cousins, and it was so fun being able to spend time with family who we don't see as much as we would like to.
The 4th of July was great! We went to the good ol' Layton parade and watched our niece Aubree perform on a float. She was so adorable! We went and saw "Get Smart" with my Mom and Dad and Spencer and Nat. We then drove down to Draper and spent time with Josh's family and watched fireworks from South Mountain.
July 5th was full of backflips and sunburns. We went boating with Josh's family to Deer Creek Reservoir and me, thinking I am above sunscreen, got absolutely FRIED! Almost 3 days later and I can barely move :( Josh landed an amazing flip on the knee-board, which he has been attempting since last year, and yet we didn't have our camera with us on the boating trip so we have no proof!
It was so great to be able to relax and get away from school and the apartments...Thank goodness for holidays!
