What What Kara's updating her blog!?!?

Holy Smokes it's been a while! After Colorado Springs Tyler and I spent a month in California selling dish network at the L.A. County Fair! It was a lot of work and lots of hours but we had fun anyway! We both sold a lot of accounts and it was definitely worth going!

On our way home from Cali, we stopped by my brother Shawn and his wife Monica's place in Arizona. We had a blast playing with our nephew Lincoln! One of his favorite things to do right now is pretend to die. He often will randomly ask one of us to "shoot" him. If no one pretends to shoot him, he'll make the "shooting" noise himself and then proceed to go through a very slow-motion death scene. haha, it's so funny. He puts his hands up in the air and very very slowly falls backward, sometimes lifting his feet up in the air while on his back. He will do this in the house, at the park, and even in the middle of an isle in the grocery store. ha! He's a lot of fun! Shawn and Monica made the trip a lot of fun as well by planning a picnic, hike, trip to the temple, and taking work off to spend time with us. :) Thanks!












those are oreos in linc's teeth :)





Since then Tyler went on a business trip with his manager hanging up signs for dish network. They started in Idaho and drove through Wyoming and Colorado. While he was gone I was able to go on a super fun girls night out in Park City. Nicole Godfrey Houghton invited me to spend Friday night two weeks ago in Park City with her girlfriends since her husband was out of town as well. We had so much fun walking through and eating on main street park city, staying in a super cute condo, talking all night long, making a yummy breakfast, shopping at the outlets and garage sales, and then finally seeing the movie Where the Wild Things Are! It was so good to be out with the ladies! I've been around so many guys lately (summer sales, the fair), it was good to be with girls again! Oh, how I've missed "girl talk". hah!

This past weekend Tyler and I spent Thursday through Monday up in Idaho with Ty's family. His parents bought a house in Rexburg and it is beautiful! I'm so happy for them! They have a HUGE yard, with a waterfall and pond in the backyard! We did a lot of fun activities with them including fishing, watching Jacob's high school football game where he played in the marching band for the half time show in the pouring rain, gold panning, fossil hunting, hot tubbing, Wii playing, and eating lots of yummy food! It was a very fun trip. Only downer was Ty's sister Emily went up the week before so we didn't get to see her. :(
















This was a toilet someone made up in the mountains. Ha!

So that's what we've been up to lately in a nutshell. :) Hope ya'll are doing fabulous!
