It's hot

It is officially the crappy part of summer here in AZ....well not super crappy....just crappy.  I say this because now is when it NEVER cools down.  Last night the low was 95 degrees and the high was 116.  It is fine because we don't live in 1920 and have air conditioning and chlorinated pools.  I just know it doesn't let up until October or so.  Beats the opposite!  This summer has been really good so far though.  It has been FAST!  The big kids (not ours) are already back in school which is kinda crazy (they only get an 8 week summer).  Cru starts pre school in a week which I think he will really enjoy.  I am excited for him but not excited to be out that extra cash a month.  Worth it me thinks?  We shall see.  I will be excited to get some more one on one time with Zoey.  Speaking of those two--here are some pics that Michelle took of them trying out some of her photography stuff on them.  I will allow it anytime because she is a photo magician.



I love these pictures!  I can't decide on color or b/w.  I am thinking b/w for some pic frames around the house.  They are seriously so much fun right now.  I was just saying to my mom that I am so content right now.  They are in a good stage and I am way less frazzled than I use to be.  It was so hard having them so close and then Zoey being a beast of a child/toddler-ish age.  Makes me really like where I am now!  And Zoey and I are in such a good place right now.  She is a sweet little girl.

Mack and Ashley are moving to PA for grad school so before they head out to Penn State they came for a visit to the AZ.  It was fun having them and I am excited for their future.
 Touring the Gilbert temple grounds and looking swag while posing for the camera.
Zoey wanted to be just like Uncle Mack.  He was trying to get a panoramic pic of the temple but had to take it through the fence so took drastic measures to get the right picture.

Argentina was in the World Cup final this year so we got all dressed up for it.  They didn't win but it was fun having someone to cheer for.  

Zac's job is going well.  They are slowing down for a little bit (nature of the business) but he is staying busy with team building and special assignments.  This job has been good for him and has let him lead the way he likes to.  He really likes who he works with which for me makes all the difference.  He has really gotten into golf which is fun.  He is way more chill than he use to be so it is fun golfing with him.  He gets to go for work quite often which is also a perk!  He also swims a lot since he can't do much else with a messed up back.

I am doing really good!  Staying busy with church calling, my kiddos, play dates, friends, and the gym time which is some of my favorite time.  I am almost 31 but I still feel like I am 20 at times.  I guess that is good??  I really love life.  All is well here for our little family!
